A rare volar luxation of the scaphotrapezial bone was identified. Closed reduction and casting successfully restored normal wrist function in this case.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Carpal bone injuries are common, but isolated scaphotrapezial luxations are rare.
  • Accurate diagnosis of carpal bone dislocations is crucial for effective treatment.

Observation:

  • Radiographs initially suggested a scaphoid luxation with unclear carpal bone relationships.
  • Computer tomographic (CT) reconstruction revealed an isolated volar luxation of the scaphotrapezial joint.

Findings:

  • The CT findings clarified the diagnosis of isolated scaphotrapezial luxation.
  • Closed reduction and immobilization with a plaster cast were performed.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the utility of CT in diagnosing complex carpal injuries.
