Congenital bipartite scaphoid--fact or fiction?

DS Louis, TP Calhoun, SM Garn, RE Carroll and AR Burdi

Whether there is such a condition as congenital bipartite scaphoid has long been debated. Five cases that fulfill the established criteria are presented, supplemented by a review of roentgenograms of 17,439 hands in which no case of bipartite scaphoid was detected. Serial sections of 196 fetal hands also failed to reveal any evidence of bipartite development of the scaphoid. We concluded that bipartite scaphoid is of traumatic origin and should be treated accordingly.
