Distal carpal row dissociation, a new form of axial carpal instability, was identified. Surgical stabilization of the capitohamate joint effectively relieved chronic wrist pain.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Hand Surgery

Background:

  • Distal carpal row dissociation typically results from high-energy trauma.
  • Previous literature has not described axial carpal sprains without complete disruption or dynamic instability.

Observation:

  • A novel form of carpal instability, termed axial carpal sprain, was observed.
  • Standard imaging techniques (radiographs, tomography, arthrography, MRI) were insufficient to identify the cause.

Findings:

  • Arthroscopic evaluation revealed dynamic axial carpal instability due to capitohamate and scapholunate ligament incompetence.
  • Capitohamate arthrodesis successfully stabilized the axial instability.

Implications:

  • This study introduces a new classification of carpal instability.
  • Surgical intervention, specifically capitohamate arthrodesis, offers a viable treatment for chronic wrist pain stemming from this condition.
