Double dislocations of finger joints are rare. An unusual case of a simultaneous Bennett's fracture/dislocation ofthe carpometacarpal joint and a dorsal dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the same thumb, and the management of this injury are reported. The patient had an excellent functional result.

Volar dislocations of the thumb metacarpophalangeal joint are uncommon and can be associated with rupture of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL). We report a case where a volar thumb dislocation was successfully closed reduced, but instability required open repair of the UCL. Early motion protocol helped achieve favorable results.

BACKGROUND Isolated thumb carpometacarpal dislocation is a rare injury pattern and the optimal treatment option is still controversial. CASE DESCRIPTION We present a 27-year-old basketball player who underwent an isolated dorsal dislocation of the thumb carpometacarpal joint after a fall. The dislocation was successfully reduced by closed means but the joint was found to be grossly unstable. ...

A 30-year-old man was referred to us with carpometacarpal joint dislocation of the thumb and fracture of the trapezium. The lesion was managed with closed reduction and percutaneous insertion of pin, resulting in good functional outcome.

INTRODUCTION Double dislocation of thumb metacarpal (MC) is a rare injury which may be secondarily complicated by growth plate injury in children. The management of floating 1st MC is also controversial since the treatment ranges from simple reduction to complex reconstruction surgeries. It is also important to understand the long-term results of different management strategies (close reduction...

INTRODUCTION Isolated dislocations of the trapezio metacarpal joint without associated fracture has been reported very rarely in the literature. There are reports of associated injuries like fracture of the trapezium, dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint and fractures of the base of the thumb metacarpal. CASE REPORT Authors report a case of isolated carpometacarpal dislocation of the ...

A case of multiple carpometacarpal joints volar dislocation in a young man of 25 years of age is reported. He presented with pain and deformity of his left hand immediately after road traffic accident. He was unable to move his left hand. X-rays of the affected hand showed volar dislocation of all four medial carpometacarpal joints. Dislocated joints were reduced, fixed with K-wires and immobil...
