Abstract:
A 12 years follow-up of a case of bilateral volar lunate dislocation treated by open reduction and K-wire stabilisation of both wrists six days after injury is described. Despite aseptic necrosis of both lunates, the patient is pain free and has useful function, without the development of lunate ischaemia and collapse, carpal instability or posttraumatic osteoarthritis.

Functional Classification of Joints
The functional classification of joints is determined by the amount of mobility between the adjacent bones. Joints are functionally classified as a synarthrosis or immobile joint, an amphiarthrosis or slightly moveable joint, or as a diarthrosis, a freely moveable joint. Fibrous and cartilaginous joints can be functionally classified as either synarthroses or amphiarthroses, whereas all synovial joints are classified as diarthroses.
