Dorsal radiocarpal dislocation.
Dorsal radiocarpal dislocation is rare. Large forces are necessary to produce such injuries and the majority of these patients have severe associated injuries and are unable to remember exactly how they occurred. A case is reported in which there was an isolated dorsal radiocarpal fracture-dislocation associated with contusion of the median nerve. The manner of injury is well demonstrated.
