Pronator quadratus pedicled bone graft for old scaphoid fractures.
Delayed union or non-union of the scaphoid was treated by a bone graft on a pronator quadratus pedicle in eight cases. This produced earlier union than the Russe procedure. The procedure is simple and is recommended for old un-united scaphoid fractures.
