This injury is very rare and only several case reports we can found in literature. Dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint was also present without ulnar styloid fracture.The mechanism of this injury is described exactly according to data of the patient. Closed reduction and plaster cast fixation brought subjectively satisfactory result and objectively only light restriction of movement and grip strength of the injured extremity without signs of instability.
