Title

5th Carpo-metacarpal dislocation with metacarpal fractures - a rare clinical couplet.

Abstract

Hand injuries are one of the commonest injuries seen in the emergency department. Of these, dislocations of the carpo-metacarpal (CMC) joints are very rare. The treating surgeon must do a thorough examination and obtain radiographs in the AP, lateral and the oblique views to make a diagnosis, or else these injuries will be missed. We present a couplet of fifth CMC joint dislocations seen back to back by the two authors. The first case was treated non-operatively and the more unstable volar dislocation underwent surgery. We present these cases for their rarity and present a brief discussion on the management of these rare injuries.

Key Words

carpo-metacarpal dislocations, hand injuries, carpo-metacarpal injuries, metacarpal fractures
