[Open transscaphoid perilunate dislocation with proximal displacement of the lunate and proximal scaphoid].
The authors report a case of dorsal transscaphoid perilunate dislocation which is noteworthy because there was significant anterior displacement of the lunate together with the proximal part of the scaphoid. The lunate was propelled in front of the radial epiphysis and the proximal part of the scaphoid ended up in front of the metaphyseal part of the radius. An emergency partial proximal row carpectomy was performed, preserving the distal part of the scaphoid. Good anatomic and functional result was observed at 6 years follow-up.
