Bilateral rotatory subluxation of the scaphoid.
We describe the case of a 17-year-old girl, who presented to our Accident and Emergency (A&E) department following minor trauma to her forearm. Initial x-rays were misread as normal. Radiographs demonstrated classical features of rotatory subluxation of the scaphoid, which was found to be bilateral.
