چکیده
Dorsal dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb is uncommon. We report the case of a 15-year-old patient with a complex dislocation of the left thumb who underwent open reduction after several attempts at closed reduction failed. At 2-month follow-up, full range of movement was regained; strength and pinch grip were comparable to that of the uninjured hand. The patient defaulted subsequent follow-up.
