Traumatic bilateral scaphoid fractures are extremely rare. Here, we report an unusual mechanism of bilateral scaphoid fracture after road traffic accident.A 32-year-old male presented with bilateral wrist pain to our plastic surgery clinic six months after he was involved in a road traffic accident. He was diagnosed with bilateral scaphoid fracture based on his CT scan findings. It is noteworthy that at the time of collision, he had grasped the steering wheel strongly to brace himself and had suffered no significant injuries except for bilateral wrist pain.The diagnosis may be missed in our case because of bilateral hand pain complaints and normal X-ray report. Thus, we suggest that CT scan should be performed in similar incidents, particularly in case of normal X-ray reports.It is recommended that CT scan should be performed in similar mechanism of injury with a high index of suspicion.
