ABSTRACT
Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a rare disease occurring in the capitate of the wrist which is the third most common site of AVN among carpal bones. There are few reports on the MRI findings of AVN in the capitate bone. Besides, there is a paucity of reports showing the benefits of imaging for the choice of the treatment modality. We report two rare cases of capitate AVN requiring surgery.
