abstract="The growing popularity of soccer in this country has led to an increasing number of soccer-related injuries. Epidemiologic studies report that soccer-related musculoskeletal injuries most frequently involve the lower extremities. These range from 56% to 95% of soccer injuries and player-to-player contact is the most common mechanism of injury. Upper extremity musculoskeletal injuries are less frequent, but have been reported, with goalkeepers being the most susceptible. There is a paucity in the literature regarding bony injuries about the wrist and hand among goalkeepers. The purpose of this article is to report three soccer-related scaphoid fractures and nonunions in two goalkeepers.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
