Session Overview:
Earlier this month we talked about distal radius fractures and released our first ever surgical approach video where Ramon Tahmassebi talked us through the volar approach to the distal radius. Now our attention turns to the scaphoid.
Prof Joe Dias from Leicester will help navigate us through this challenging and contentious topic.
- Does every patient need a CT to assess for displacement?
- Does every patient need a CT to assess for displacement?
- Can we still treat displaced fractures non-operatively?
- Which fractures do we absolutely need to fix?
