[Comparison of various evaluation measures for assessment of treatment success after scaphoid injuries].
Different evaluation scores have been developed in order to assess treatment outcome of carpal injuries. The available scores are not comparable and differ in type and number of parameters. This is a retrospective study of 100 patients who presented with a fracture or a pseudarthrosis of the scaphoid from 1983 to 1997. The Cooney and the Meine scores were compared with our own score. While the Cooney score and the newly developed score show an equal distribution of results in all categories, the score of Meine led to an overall better outcome assessment. The comparative evaluation of the different scores shows that the combination of only a few well defined parameters is sufficient for assessing the treatment outcome of carpal injuries.
