AbstractLunate fractures are rare and are usually associated with high-energy trauma. Typically, they are described in isolation or with associated carpal injuries such as scaphoid, capitate, or radial styloid fractures. We report a case of a complex lunate fracture in combination with a perilunate dissociation injury.Copyright © 2012 American Society for Surgery of the Hand. Published by Elsevier Inc.
