title: Palmar subluxation of the thumb carpometacarpal joint following the median nerve recurrent branch injury.
abstract: To our knowledge, the combination of a palmar subluxation of the thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint with low median nerve deficit followed by the recurrent branch injury is extremely rare. We present a case of the subluxation of the thumb CMC joint with low median nerve deficit.
