Palmar Trans-scaphoid Perilunar Dislocation: A Case Report and a Literature Review of Clinicodemographic Characteristics and Management Options

Palmar trans-scaphoid perilunar dislocation is a rare finding in clinical practice. Herein, we report a case of a young right-handed male hairdresser brought to the emergency room after a heavy blow to his right hand. An X-ray showed a palmar dislocation of the capitate, carpus, and distal scaphoid relative to the lunate, which remains in normal alignment with the radius, with the proximal scaphoid maintaining attachment to the lunate. Open reduction and internal fixation were done in the first week after trauma.
