Article Synopsis
- Perilunate dislocation is a rare wrist injury often caused by excessive loading on a hyperextended and ulnar-deviated wrist, leading to potential ligament damage and displacement of the lunate bone.
- A unique case of a 38-year-old construction worker with a trans-styloid, trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture dislocation and accompanying carpal tunnel syndrome was documented, marking an unusual presentation not previously reported.
- Treatment involved open reduction and ligament repair to preserve hand function, along with carpal tunnel release due to the symptomatic nerve compression.
