Schweizer A et al. – Preoperative planning for scaphoid reconstruction is usually performed using conventional radiographs and single computed tomography (CT) slices. However, by synthesizing the information from the CT into a 3–dimensional reconstruction, an exact analysis is possible. This method also allows quantification of prosupination displacement. The postreduction area of dorsal bone overlap may be due to appositional callus formation.
