Isolated Dislocation of all Five Carpometacarpal Joints

Abstract

Fracture-dislocation of all five carpometacarpal joints is extremely rare, only ten cases having been reported since 1873. A case of isolated dislocation of all five carpometacarpal joints is presented. A good result was obtained 1 year after open reduction and internal fixation. This case is the only isolated dislocation of all five carpometacarpal joints in the English literature.
