Case Report
A 59-year-old, right-handed man fell from a 5-m-high ladder. He was transferred to our hand clinic on the second day from a local clinic because of a failure of closed reduction of dislocated carpal bones on the day of injury. The patient reported severe pain in his right wrist, which was swollen, bruised, and deformed. Circulation in the right hand had been maintained, but sensation in the 4 radial digits was decreased. Multiple abrasions on the volar aspect of the wrist and hand suggested
Discussion
We reviewed 34 cases of isolated scaphoid dislocation in 29 English language articles from 1930 onward.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29Table 1 lists the epidemiological data, mode of injury, radiographic data, combined injury, type of surgery, and complications. Cases of rotatory subluxation or dislocation and cases with controversy were excluded. Our case was a simultaneous palmar dislocation of the scaphoid and dorsal
