AbstractPalmar dislocation of the trapezoid is a rare injury, which results from substantial trauma to the wrist. It is associated with other bony or ligamentous injuries in the wrist. If unrecognized, loss of function of the hand and early osteoarthritis may result. Treatment of choice is open reduction and internal fixation, which generally achieves good functional results. We describe a new case of palmar dislocation of the trapezoid and review the world literature with emphasis on the radiographic findings.
