Eight. Proximal row contains from lateral to medial side four bones. They are Scaphoid, Lunate, triqurtal and Pisiform. Distal row contains from lateral to medial side four bones. They are Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate and Hammate.( Out of these fracture of Scaphoid is very dangerous if untreated. Leading to avascular necrosis of the distal part and wrist is affected for ever.)
