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.

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.

Isolated dislocation of the tarsal navicular is a rare injury that is not mentioned in standard orthopedic textbooks and described only once in the English literature. Because of the rarity of this condition, the best means of treatment has not been established. A patient with this unusual dislocation was recently diagnosed and treated. Open reduction was eventually required, which was followed by the development of ischemic necrosis of the navicular.

Background: Simultaneous ipsilateral floating knee and hip is a very rare injury and so far, no standard guideline has been determined for its treatment. Case Report:In the current study, we report a surgical technique for the treatment of a 17-year-old patient with this condition on his left side. Conclusion: We recommend to start the fixation from proximal and stabilize the pelvic ring at first, then fix the posterior part of the acetabulum and femoral shaft with the same posterior approach.
