[The Matti-Russe method of treatment of ununited fractures of the scaphoid bone].
The authors present their experience with treatment of scaphoid non-unions by the operation according to Matti-Russe. They compare their results with those of other authors and present a relatively high number of successfully treated patients with stable non-unions localized in the midline of the scaphoid bone as well as a high patient satisfaction rate with this method of treatment. The disadvantage of this treatment is long-term cast immobilization of the wrist and poor results in treatment of unstable non-unions and those localized in the proximal portion of the scaphoid bone. They conclude, that at present, it is more effective to support the surgery by osteosynthesis with an adequate implant and thus shorten the immobilization period in a cast.
