Dislocation of the triquetrum: case report.
A case of closed anterior dislocation of the triquetrum is reported. Because of delayed diagnosis the patient was not operated until four months after the injury, when the bone was excised. At follow-up 19 months later the power of grip was slightly reduced but the movements were unimpaired and the hand was painfree.
