Department of Hand Surgery, Canton Hospital Olten, 4600 Olten, Switzerland.
We present the case of a 14-year-old patient who suffered fracture dislocation of the pisiform bone (PB) along with fractures of the scaphoid, proximal radius, and proximal phalanx of the thumb due to high-energy trauma directly to the extended wrist. This combination of fractures has not been previously reported in the literature. Currently, there is no consensus in the literature regarding the optimal treatment approach for such cases.

Flexor tendon entrapments as a result of fractures or dislocations in the upper extremity are rare. Diagnosis by clinical examination is not always possible, and imaging such as magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound is often obtained. These modalities have the disadvantages of reduced sensitivity or increased cost and time, respectively.

Objectives: Fractures of carpal bones other than the scaphoid are rare in children. The aim of this study was to analyze results and identify risk factors for an unfavorable outcome.
Material And Methods: Children and adolescents up to the age of 16 years who sustained a carpal fracture other than in the scaphoid between 2004 and 2021 were reviewed in this single-center retrospective study.
Intercarpal Angles on Hand Versus Wrist Films: Are Hand Radiographs Sufficient for Assessing Intercarpal Angles?
J Hand Surg Am
December 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL. Electronic address:
Purpose: Carpal angles traditionally are measured on the lateral projection of a standard wrist series; however, this often necessitates obtaining additional radiographic views resulting in additional radiation exposure and increased cost. We aimed to determine whether carpal angles could be measured accurately on a standard series of hand radiographs when compared to wrist radiographs.
Methods: Carpal indices were measured on lateral wrist and hand radiographs of 40 patients by three orthopedic upper extremity surgeons.
