The stability of the wrist during motion and interrelated motions depends on the capsuloligamentous integrity and the contact surface contours of the carpal bones [1]. Perilunate fracture dislocations (PLFD) are high-energy injuries, produced by wrist hyperextension. It can be palmar or dorsal. Palmar dislocation is extremely rare and result from a fall on the dorsum of the flexed wrist. This i...

Perilunate and perilunate fracture dislocations are high-energy injuries with the wrist loaded in extension, ulnar deviation, and intercarpal supination. The force vector travels from a radial to a ulnar direction and can result in complex carpal instability. The diagnosis is often delayed, which can result in suboptimal outcomes. Nonoperative management can produce inferior results, with patie...

Sixteen cases of dorsal transscaphoid perilunate fracture/dislocations in 15 patients were treated by open reduction and internal fixation of the scaphoid with a Herbert screw and/or Kirschner wires. All patients were male, with a mean age of 31 years. The average follow-up period was 3 years. These perilunate dislocations were transscaphoid in 13 cases, and transstyloid and transscaphoid in 3 ...

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the treatment outcomes of perilunate dislocations (PLDs) andtransscaphoid perilunate fracture dislocations (TSPLDs) treated with operative volar approach without ligament repairor reconstruction.Methods: A total of seven patients (10 hands) were studied during 2017-2018. We fixed scaphoid fractures thorougha volar app...

INTRODUCTION Perilunate and lunate dislocations are uncommon high energy injuries and have extensive soft tissue, cartilaginous and bony damage. The most common pattern is trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture dislocation which constitutes approximately 50% of these injuries. Unusual injury pattern like Scaphocapitate syndrome can occur with fracture through scaphoid waist and capitate that rotate...
