  • Title: Multiple carpometacarpal dislocations and an ipsilateral scapho-trapezium-trapezoid fracture-dislocation: a rare pattern of injury.
    Author: Kirkham SG, Gray RJ.
    Journal: J Orthop Surg (Hong Kong); 2004 Dec; 12(2):267-9. PubMed ID: 15621921.
    Abstract:
    We report a rare case of simultaneous dorsal dislocation of 4 ulnar carpometacarpal joints and dorsoradial dislocation of the trapezium with an associated fracture of the scaphoid tuberosity. The injuries were diagnosed early and treated successfully with closed reduction and transfixation using Kirschner wires. The functional results were excellent at 17-month follow-up.
