The article describes a sequestrated portion of the carpal scaphoid bone, which is interpreted as a marginal fragmentation by partial necrosis of the scaphoid bone. In the authors' opinion, earlier writings have not proved incontestably the occurence of a genuine osteochondritis dissecans of the scaphoid bone.
