Acute Pisiform Dislocation in Association with Terrible Triad Injury of the Elbow

Dislocation of the pisiform is a rare injury, with only few cases reported in the literature. This condition, in association with terrible triad injury of the elbow, is an even more rare occurrence. We report a case of a 51-years-old right-handed female patient who suffered from a dislocation of the left pisiform in association with terrible triad injury of the elbow, after a ground level fall. It was performed a reinsertion of the coronoid process and radial collateral ligaments with anchors, radial head arthroplasty, and closed reduction and internal fixation of the pisiform with Kirschner wire. At the end of follow-up, the patient had satisfactory range of movement of the wrist and elbow, and no residual pain. This rare injury to the wrist is demanding in diagnostics and treatment. However, with a correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment, an excellent clinical outcome can be achieved.

Dislocation fracture of the pisiform in a 14-year-old—a rare injury to the hand

Isolated dislocation or dislocation fracture of the pisiform are rare injuries with only few cases reported in the literature. Injuries to the pisiform occur more often in combination with other carpal injuries as the sturdiness and stability of its ligamentous attachments protect it from dislocating following a minor trauma. The most cases of dislocation or fracture occur following a direct trauma to the palmar and ulnar aspects of the wrist. Predominantly young male patients present with this problem. We present a case of a 14-year-old female who suffered from a dislocation fracture after falling from her bicycle on her outstretched hand. After confirming the diagnosis of pisiform dislocation fracture and reviewing the literature, we performed pisectomy with rerouting of the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon by suturing it to the ligamentous attachments. These rare injuries to the wrist are demanding in diagnostics and treatment and could be neglected in acute period. However, with a correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment, an excellent clinical outcome can be achieved.

Extrusion of the Hamate: A Case Report with Proposed Classification Amendment.

A thirteen-year-old right-hand-dominant girl sustained a right hamate fracture-extrusion with associated pisiform dislocation and volar degloving injury with open fractures of the scaphoid, capitate, lunate, and trapezoid following an all-terrain-vehicle rollover. She was noted to have paresthesias in the median nerve distribution. Treatment involved irrigation and debridement of the right wrist and internal fixation of the hamate, capitate, and scaphoid. At fifteen months of follow-up, she had returned to competitive softball as a pitcher. Radiographs demonstrated fully healed fractures. Complete extrusion of the hamate through an open wound can be treated with good functional outcomes.

Traumatic Dislocation of the Pisiform: A Case Report

Isolated pisiform dislocation is rare. We present one such case in a 20-year-old man occurring after a direct injury to the wrist. After an initial delay in diagnosis and unsuccessful closed reduction, he underwent resection of the pisiform. At 12-month follow-up, he had full range of movement of the wrist and no residual pain.

Unusual wrist pain: Pisiform dislocation and fracture

Injuries to the wrist can be challenging to the emergency physician. Injuries to the pisiform bone are rare entities, and their diagnosis may be delayed, increasing the morbidity to the patient. The report describes the cases of a 62-year-old woman with a pisiform dislocation and a 35-year-old man with a pisiform fracture. Excision of the pisiform bone was required in both cases, and both patients had good clinical response.

CARPAL BONE DISLOCATIONS

Twenty cases of carpal bone dislocation were encountered during a 7-year period, with an average of 27 months of follow-up. There were ten types of dislocation in this series; the most common type was transscaphoid perilunate dislocation which was seen in nine cases. In addition, there were two scaphoid subluxations; one volar lunate dislocation; one dorsal perilunate dislocation; one scaphoid perilunate dislocation; one hamate and pisiform dislocation; one transhamate pisiform dislocation; one trapezoid dislocation with dislocation of carpometacarpal joints two to five; one dislocation of the trapezium, trapezoid, and carpometacarpal joints two to four; and two trapezium periscapholunate dislocations. Methods of treatment included open reduction, closed reduction, proximal row carpectomy, total wrist arthrodesis, and excision of the lunate. In this series, the patterns of dislocation were different for crushing injuries and dorsiflexion injuries. The clinical results associated with the soft-tissue injuries of the ipsilateral hand were mostly caused by crushing forces. Although carpal instabilities were noted, there was no significant correlation between the clinical and roentgenographic results in some of our cases. Best results invariably relied on a stable anatomic reduction and an adequate period of immobilization. Poor results were demonstrated in the cases with incomplete initial reduction, secondary degenerative arthrosis, or nonunion.
