Hammate
QuestionChoice
This bone is in the distal row of carpal bones (Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate, Hamate) whereas the fractured bone in the image is seen in the proximal row (Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, Pisiform). As the fractured bone is under the thumb (on the radial side), it is the scaphoid.
