Resumen
BARROS, André et al. Luxação palmar isolada da quinta articulação carpo-metacárpica. Rev. Port. Ortop. Traum. [online]. 2012, vol.20, n.1, pp.99-103. ISSN 1646-2122.
Isolated volar fifth carpometacarpal dislocation is a rare condition. This lesion may be overlooked, and clinical suspicion is of most importance, leading to a radiological assessment in both the standard and oblique roentgenograms. The treatment option is controversy, and previous authors described both closed reduction and percutaneous pinning, and open reduction and internal fixation. We describe a case of an isolated volar-cubital dislocation and the treatment option. The functional result was evaluated according to DASH score, at six months after surgery, with a score of 0.8. The patient had no complaint, and was able to perform his daily activities without restrictions.
