title: Isolated posttraumatic ulnar translocation of the radiocarpal joint.
abstract: An isolated posttraumatic ulnar translocation of the carpus is unusual. In cases in which the translocation occurs without accompanying injury to distal radius, ulna, or carpal bones, the diagnosis is often delayed due to the unfamiliarity of the treating physician with this rare radiographical finding. By presenting two patients with such an injury, we hope to increase awareness of this injury.
