Scaphoid stress fractures are rare and can be a cause of wrist pain in sportspersons. All the cases reported in the literature have been sportspersons. Missing a scaphoid stress fracture could lead to non-union of the scaphoid and early degenerative arthritis of the radio-carpal joint. This can cause chronic wrist pain and can reduce the career span of a sportsperson. We report a case of non union of a scaphoid fracture in a cricketer possibly secondary to a stress fracture.
舟骨应力性骨折较为罕见，可能是运动员手腕疼痛的原因。文献中报道的所有病例均为运动员。漏诊舟骨应力性骨折可能导致舟骨不愈合以及桡腕关节早期退行性关节炎。这会引起慢性手腕疼痛，并可能缩短运动员的职业生涯。我们报告一例板球运动员舟骨骨折不愈合病例，可能继发于应力性骨折。
