Abstract:
Volar perilunar dislocations of the carpus are rare. They occur in young patients following a violent injury. Open reduction is often needed because of instability of the lesion. The authors report a case of volar transscaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation treated surgically, with a satisfactory functional result after a follow-up of two and a half years.

Overview of Flail Chest
Flail chest is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the fracture of three or more adjacent ribs in multiple places. It is most commonly caused by direct impacts and trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents or injuries from a steering wheel impact. It can also occur due to falls in elderly individuals with osteoporosis, or assaults involving sharp objects.

It includes a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, a diagnostic evaluation to determine the extent of the injury, and the implementation of appropriate medical interventions tailored to the individual's needs.
