Volar Perilunate Dislocation: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Perilunate dislocations, lunate dislocations and perilunate fracture dislocations are rare injuries comprising of less than 10% of all wrist injuries. Volar peri-lunate dislocations (VPLDs) account for less than 3% of perilunate dislocations. These severe carpal injuries occur after high-energy trauma to the wrist and falls on the outstretched hand. We present a case of a missed VPLD who develo...
متن کاملClassification and management of carpal dislocations.
A classification and plan of management for carpal dislocations are presented, based upon the following basic premises: perilunate and lunate dislocations are different stages of the same injury and are therefore managed identically; displacement may be either dorsal or volar; anatomic restoration of the 3 key elements (scaphoid, lunate, and capitate) is essential. Following initial closed redu...
متن کاملImage diagnosis: Perilunate and lunate dislocations.
Perilunate Dislocation Anterior-posterior (AP) view (Figure 1) demonstrates the distal and proximal carpal rows overlapping, as well as a complete radial styloid fracture. Lateral view (Figures 2 and 3) demonstrates dorsal dislocation of the capitate, whereas the lunate remains articulated with the radius. More often seen in young men in their teens to twenties, rather than children or the elde...
متن کاملTrans-Scaphoid Perilunate Fracture-Dislocation and Isolated Perilunate Dislocations; Surgical Versus Non Surgical Treatment
Background: Trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation and perilunate dislocations are among uncommon injuries, most commonly seen in young patients due to high energy trauma. The treatment can be achieved either surgically by open reduc tion and internal fixation or closed reduction and casting. Methods: To compare surgical versus non-operative results of treatment of trans-scaphoid pe...
متن کاملTrans-scaphoid and trans-capitate perilunate fracture-dislocation of the wrist with concomitant ipsilateral fractures: a case report
Of all wrist dislocation, the perilunate is the most common type of dislocation. There is ligament disruption typically begins radially and propagates around the lunate. It may be associated with different carpal fractures which the most common pattern is the trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation [1,2] which constitutes approximately 50% of these injuries [1-5]. Injury to the distal ra...
