Dorsal dislocation of the intermediate cuneiform and isolated medial cuneiform fractures are rare injuries. In this report, we present a patient who sustained a dislocation of the intermediate cuneiform and describe predisposing factors and the treatment procedure.

BACKGROUND Total spondylolisthesis, or dislocation of 1 cervical vertebrae, is only caused by high-energy trauma and is usually fatal. Cervical spine fractures and dislocations often cause 3-column structural damage to the cervical spine, injury to the spinal cord, and precipitating alignment of the cervical vertebrae, as well as cervical instability, which are detrimental, show poor prognosis,...

INTRODUCTION Approximately 65% of the emergency cases are major and minor traumas. 35% of the unnoticed traumatic injuries are seen in the Emergency Departments. Unnoticed traumatic injuries adversely affects the patient’s prognosis, as well as tarnishing the reliability and reputation of the related clinician and institution [1]. Dislocation of the Proximal Tibiofibular Joint (PTFJ) is among t...

INTRODUCTION Traumatic dislocation of the radial head in paediatric population is a well described injury, it is usually associated with an injury to the ulna in the Monteggia lesion (1), but can occur as an isolated injury also (2,3). CASE REPORT A 4.5 year old girl presented to emergency department with her right upper limb held in pronation and flexion following isolated closed injury. Roe...

Isolated dislocation of the trapezium is an uncommon injury. There are sixteen cases to date reported in the literature. The management of these cases has varied from complete excision to open or closed reduction, with or without percutaneous wiring. This paper presents a case of an isolated dislocation of the trapezium without fracture, managed with closed reduction and percutaneous wiring, re...

Background. Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation is a common shoulder problem. However, information about the basic epidemiological features of this condition is scarce. The aim of this study is to analyze the epidemiology of isolated AC dislocation in an urban population. Materials and Methods. A retrospective database search was performed to identify all patients with an AC dislocation ov...

The displacement field around an isolated elementary dislocation in a medium with one-dimensional periodicity is established experimentally. The system studied is a cholesteric fingerprint texture with a macroscopic ( approximately 10 microm) periodicity. The characteristic elastic length is smaller than the "interlayer" distance. As a result, the experimental dislocation profile deviates from ...

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 ...
