AbstractUnilateral pure dislocation of the fifth carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) is a very rare injury. We are reporting the second case of an ulnar type of unilateral dislocation of a fifth CMCJ. Indian salutation (Namaskar) test and radiographs aid in diagnosis. Closed reduction and internal fixation by K-wires restored the normal anatomic relationships of the fifth CMC joint. This type of injury is prone to be missed in an emergency room due to soft tissue swelling, and particular attention should be paid to diagnose it in polytrauma patients. A review of the literature is presented.

We report a case of volar fourth and fifth carpometacarpal (CMC) joint dislocation complicated by a hamate hook fracture. The CMC joint was reduced in a closed fashion and temporally fixed with Kirschner wires. Using intraoperative computed tomography, the displaced fracture of the hamate hook was reduced by open reduction and internal fixation and fixed with a screw. We suggest that this rare injury was caused by the over contraction of the flexor carpi ulnaris and avulsion force from the ligamentous structure around the pisiform, hamate, and metacarpal bones.

Triangular Fibrocartilage

Traumatic hypersupination injury of the distal radioulnar joint is a rare injury, and occurs when sufficient supination force is applied to the joint so as to tear the volar radioulnar ligament, resulting in separation of the triangular fibrocartilage complex, and subluxation of the tendon of extensor carpi ulnaris. This allows the distal ulna to rotate such that the ulnar styloid comes to lie adjacent to the ulna notch of the radius. Treatment of this injury requires manipulation of the joint, under anaesthesia or sedation. We describe a case where posttraumatic radiological investigation of a patient with an anatomical variation of the wrist when in supination resembled a traumatic hypersupination injury of the distal radioulnar joint. A review of the literature has revealed this to be the first reported case of this type.

Isolated palmar dislocation of the 5th carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) is a rare injury that can be easily missed and requires a high index of suspicion to detect. We report a case of an initially missed isolated ulnopalmar dislocation of the 5th CMCJ and a summary of other published case reports comparing methods of fixation and outcomes. We conclude that a delay in diagnosis will significantly reduce the chances of successfully managing this injury via closed reduction.

Penile fracture is a rare injury most commonly sustained duringsexual intercourse. We report the case of a 35-year-old man whopresented with bilateral rupture of the corpora cavernosa andcomplete disruption of the urethra. A review of the literature onpenile fracture is also presented. Urgent surgical exploration wasperformed and the injuries repaired primarily. In follow-up, thepatient reported satisfactory erectile function. This case highlightsthe importance of early surgical repair and evaluation for concomitanturethral injuries in cases of penile fracture.

AbstractTraumatic dislocation of the pisiform bone (PB) is a rare injury of the carpal bones, especially in pediatric patients. A few cases were reported, and there is no consensus about the treatment. Each author supports his own method, such as an open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) approach or a closed reduction. However, failures of both techniques with recurrent dislocation of the PB have been reported in the literature. In this article, a fracture dislocation of the PB was treated with ORIF in an 11-year-old boy with a greenstick radial fracture. In addition, a review of the literature about pisiform fracture dislocation in children has been made.

Cmc Joint

Injuries to the carpometacarpal (CMC) joints are uncommon injuries and isolated dislocation of these joints occurs very infrequently. The 4th and 5th CMC joints are predominantly involved in CMC joint injuries. The detection of CMC joint injuries requires a high index of suspicion and often depends on special radiographic views. This article present a case report of a mid-shaft fracture of the 4th metacarpal which was associated with an isolated dislocation of the 5th CMC joint. An overview of the incidence, mechanism of injury, anatomy, clinical and radiological assessment of injuries involving dorsal dislocation of the 5th carpometacarpal joint is presented.
