Isolated carpal scaphoid dislocation.
Isolated carpal scaphoid dislocations are rare. Because of this, treatment strategies can be conflicting and vague. The current authors present a case of isolated scaphoid dislocation that was treated initially with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning. Failure of this index treatment necessitated open reduction and internal fixation providing an adequate short-term outcome. Current treatment strategies now advocate ligament reconstruction as a first-line treatment to restore normal anatomy and preserve function.
