Scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) injuries are frequently associated with irreversible degenerative wrist arthritic changes that necessitate surgical intervention. Midcarpal fusion remains the mainstay of the management of SNAC II and III injuries. A successful four-corner fusion (4CF) relies on a stable lunate-capitate fusion (LCF). There have been reports of management relying solely on LCF. The outcomes of LC- and 4 C-fusions in SNAC injuries were not widely documented. The objective of this research is to provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of both fusion procedures in the management of SNAC II and III wrist injuries, with a focus on reporting associated complications, functional and radiological outcomes.
