Trapezoidal fractures: Overview and introduction of a novel diagnostic classification system
2020, Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The remaining 33.3% (n = 8) of patients underwent surgical intervention. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with screws (n = 2) or K-wires (n = 3) was performed in 62.5% (n = 5) of surgical cases.2,7,16,23,24 The remaining 37.5% (n = 3) required more complex surgical interventions, such as complete resection of a trapezoidal fracture-dislocation with inter-carpal fusion (n = 1),18 bone fragment excision (n = 1),19 and open reduction with joint arthrodesis of the second carpometacarpal joint (n = 1).14
Fractures of the Carpal Bones
2019, Clinics in Plastic SurgeryCarpal Fractures Other than Scaphoid
2015, Clinics in Sports MedicineCitation Excerpt :When fractured, the pull of the strong volar intercarpal ligaments results in dorsal displacement of the bone. This injury is caused by an axial load from the second metacarpal.80–82 Trapezoid fractures are classified as either dorsal rim or body types.71
Trapezoid fractures: Report of 11 cases
2012, Journal of Hand Surgery(iii) Injuries of the carpus
2011, Orthopaedics and TraumaCitation Excerpt :The bone can be visualized quite well on standard PA, oblique and lateral X-rays. Close attention should be paid to the congruence of the surrounding joints to assess for subluxation or dislocation, particularly of the second CMC joint of the index finger, dislocation of the trapezoid can occur, usually in a dorsal direction.22 Minimally displaced fractures are treated with a short arm cast until pain subsides, whilst those which are displaced, have an intra-articular step, or subluxation of a joint should be reduced and stabilized with wires or screws.
Carpal Bone Fractures
2010, Hand ClinicsCitation Excerpt :Because of this position, the more commonly reported injuries include a dorsal dislocation.55 Axially loading injuries leading to trapezoid fractures can occur.56 Dislocations can be treated by closed reduction.
