Abstract

A variety of unique and very rare carpal dislocations are reported. According to personal findings, an extension of the descriptive classification of this pathology is proposed, utilizing also the X-ray files of the Rizzoli Orthopaedic Institute. Moreover, the radiographical features are evaluated which help choosing the treatment to be followed.
