AbstractVolar fracture dislocation of the second and third metacarpal bases associated with acute carpal tunnel syndrome in a 17-year-old football player were treated with open reduction, via volar incision to decompress the carpal tunnel, and via a second dorsal incision for internal fixation of the fracture dislocations with Kirschner wire fixation and reinsertion of the avulsed extensor carpi radialis:longus tendon. Anatomic reduction by closed or open reduction is recommended to avoid leaving patients with a weak grip and pain over the site of the fracture.
