Abstract

The traumatic hand by spinning top occurs frequently in developing countries. It tends to occur in young people, leading to psychologic and socio-economic disability and loss. In this series of 7 patients, the middle age was 37 years. The left hand was involved in 72% and was treated in the Department of Traumatology and Orthopedic Surgery affiliated to Ibn Sina Hospital in Rabat. These accidents are correlated with somnolence and lack of vigilance. The most frequent causes are absence of security systems and heterogeneity of the wood but also the unpredictability of the machines used in butchery. Prevention in this pathology is considered the main treatment.
