Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Hand Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Carpal boss is a dorsal bony eminence at the base of the second or third metacarpal.
  • It may extend to the trapezoid and capitate bones.
  • The condition is often asymptomatic but can cause pain and extensor tendon subluxation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical and radiographic features of carpal boss.
  • To outline the diagnostic criteria and treatment options for carpal boss.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical presentations and radiographic findings of carpal boss.
  • Analysis of treatment outcomes for conservative and surgical interventions.

Main Results:

  • Carpal boss is characterized by a regular-shaped bony eminence visible on lateral radiographs.

  • Pain is typically spontaneous or activity-induced, exacerbated by wrist flexion.
  • Extensor tendon subluxation can occur in affected individuals.

    • Conclusions:

    • Carpal boss is a distinct entity with specific clinical and radiographic features.
    • Conservative management is often effective in relieving symptoms.
    • Surgical intervention is indicated for refractory cases.
