Dislocation of the pisiform bone after severe crush injury to the hand.

摘要

The pisiform bone dislocated in a 56-year-old worker who had a crush injury of his wrist. Open reduction and reconstruction of the ligaments resulted in proximal subluxation of the pisiform bone and post-traumatic arthritic changes. Other authors recommend that excision of the pisiform is considered to be a more appropriate method of treatment.
