14-year-old male with right wrist pain, possible scaphoid fracture Periosteal new bone formation along the volar and ulnar aspect of the distal radial metaphysis presumably represents attempted healing of an underlying occult fracture. Please note that this periosteal reaction is nonspecific and if there is no history of trauma, MRI is recommended for further evaluation. The scaphoid appears normal.
