Bilateral Carpometacarpal Joint Dislocations of the Thumb
A traumatic carpometacarpal joint dislocation of the thumb accounts for less than 1% of all hand injuries. Optimal treatment strategies for this injury are still a subject of debate. In this article, we report a case of bilateral thumb carpometacarpal joint dislocations: a unique combination of injuries. We believe our case is the second report of bilateral carpometacarpal joint dislocation reg...
متن کاملMultiple carpometacarpal dislocations and an ipsilateral scapho-trapezium-trapezoid fracture-dislocation: a rare pattern of injury.
We report a rare case of simultaneous dorsal dislocation of 4 ulnar carpometacarpal joints and dorsoradial dislocation of the trapezium with an associated fracture of the scaphoid tuberosity. The injuries were diagnosed early and treated successfully with closed reduction and transfixation using Kirschner wires. The functional results were excellent at 17-month follow-up.
متن کاملA Novel Screening Technique for Ulnar-Sided Carpometacarpal Dislocations.
Diagnosing ulnar-sided carpometacarpal joint dislocation is difficult, and more than half of injuries are missed on initial examination. The authors hypothesized that measuring the angle between the capitate and the metacarpals (capitate-metacarpal angle) on a plain radiograph would provide a simple, reliable tool to aid in the diagnosis of ulnar-sided carpometacarpal dislocation. This study re...
متن کاملThe intermetacarpal angle screening test for ulnar-sided carpometacarpal fracture-dislocations.
PURPOSE Ulnar-sided carpometacarpal injuries can be difficult to diagnose radiographically. We hypothesized that the resting position of the normal hand during lateral radiography provides a consistent relationship between the rays and that dorsal subluxation of the metacarpal base in fracture-dislocations increases the angle between the uninjured index and long metacarpals and the injured smal...
متن کاملUlnopalmar dislocation of the fifth carpometacarpal joint. A rare injury.
Volar dislocation of the carpometacarpal joint of the little finger is an uncommon injury. It is subdivided in ulnopalmar and radiopalmar dislocations. The injury can easily be missed on standard x-rays. Closed reduction and K-wire fixation has commonly been used in the treatment, although closed reduction and casting has been reported. Only 10 cases of an ulnopalmar dislocation were published ...
