Fractures of the scaphoid bone mainly occur in young adults and constitute 2-7% of all fractures [1]. The specific blood supply in combination with the demanding functional requirements can easily lead to disturbed fracture healing, scaphoid fractures are more prone for AVN. Undisplaced scaphoid fractures are not seen on radiographs hence the diagnostic strategy of suspected scaphoid fractures is surrounded by controversy and may require bone scintigraphy, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography which have their shortcomings. Early treatment leads to a better outcome. Scaphoid fractures can be treated conservatively and operatively. Proximal scaphoid fractures and displaced scaphoid fractures have a worse outcome and might be better off with an open or closed reduction and internal fixation. We describe the case of a 25 year old male presenting with undisplaced scaphoid fracture of right hand which was treated with ORIF and Bone grafting.
