Carpal instability is a biomechanical alteration with a multiple pathogenesis which, if not identified and treated in time, leads to gradual articular collapse. Traumatism is known to be one of the main causes of carpal instability, while deposits of microcrystals caused by metabolic (chondrocalcinosis and gout) and congenital (ulna minus variance) diseases are less frequently involved in the p...

Paediatric Chance fracture are rare lesions but often associated with abdominal injuries. We herein present the case of a seven years old patient who sustained an entrapment of small bowel and an ureteropelvic disruption associated with a Chance fracture and spine dislocation following a traffic accident. Initial X-rays and computed tomographic (CT) scan showed a Chance fracture with dislocatio...

Abdominal traumatism (AT) produces lesions in the wall or content (viscera, mesos, vascular ducts, biliopancreatic, urinary tract). The abdomen can be injured isolation, although about a third of pediatric polytraumatisms are associated with AT. AT implies high vital risk due to two circumstances: hemorrhage injury solid organs blood vessels and peritonitis perforation hollow viscera. global mo...
