Concomitant perilunate dislocation of the wrist with posterior radial head subluxation: case report.
We believe that this is the first reported case of concomitant ipsilateral perilunate dislocation of the wrist with an associated posterior radial head dislocation. The case presented involves both injuries occurring during a single traumatic episode. Recognition is the key to reducing the morbidity associated with each dislocation.
