A, B and C Posteroanterior and lateral preoperative radiography and sagittal computed tomography of a 39-year-old man with unstable Sc nonunion (scapholunate angle [SLA, between 2 straight lines], 70°; radiolunate angle [RLA, between 2 dotted lines], 22°, Intrascaphoid angle [ISA, between 2 white lines], 71°).
