Isolated fracture of Pisiform bone, a case report

Abstract

Isolated fracture of the pisiform bone is extremely rare. It is usually associated with fractures other carpal bones, distal radius and radiocarpal dislocations. Because of the rarity, many of these fractures may have gone undetected. So for the diagnosis of such fractures good clinical as well as radiological evaluation is required. We therefore present a case report of acute isolated fracture of pisiform bone in 25 year old male, active patient who was managed by below elbow cast with excellent results.
