carpal fracture-dislocation is regarded as an unusual orthopedic injury and, thus, orthopedic surgeons are less experienced in dealing with and treating these fractures and dislocations. we report a 20-year-old worker man suffering from an unusual carpal fracture-dislocation. there was trans-scaphoid fracture and lunate dislocation with other carpal proximal bones toward volar of the wrist. two...

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 reduction and internal fixation or closed reduction and casting.

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...

UNLABELLED Trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation is the most common variety of fracture-dislocations of the wrist. Because of the carpal scaphoid fracture association, post-reduction stability is poor, often requiring surgery. Of the several surgical techniques used over time, percutaneous screw fixation for scaphoid fracture is currently preferred. MATERIAL AND METHODS Six cases of ...

The purpose of this study was to review clinical and radiographic outcomes of perilunate dislocations and fracture dislocations treated with external fixation and K-wire fixation. Twenty patients (18 males and two females) with a mean age of 38 years (range 18-59) who had an acute dorsal perilunate dislocation or fracture dislocation were treated with the use of wrist external fixator and K-wir...

Trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture dislocations, which account for more than half of total cases injuries, are common in young patients and occur as a result high-energy improper management can impair wrist alignment function. Understanding the related anatomy pathomechanics may help surgeons evaluate diagnose patients. Early operation to reduce fix injuries should be considered achieve optimal...

We report the case of a 21-year-old man who injured his right hand in a fall from his motorbike, causing a trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation associated with vertical fracture of the pyramid (A and B). On day 2, patient underwent a bloody reduction (C) of disorganized carpal bones with osteosynthesis of scaphoid and pyramid (D). Peri-lunate fracture-dislocation is a rare injury cons...
