RESUMEN
Multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome (MCTO) is a rare skeletal disorder characterized by progressive osteolysis involving the carpal and tarsal bones, and often associated with nephropathy. It is caused by heterozygous mutation in the MAF bZIP transcription factor B (MAFB) gene. Heterogeneous clinical manifestation and wide spectrum of disease severity have been observed in patients with MCTO. Here, we report a case of a male patient who presented with kidney failure in childhood with progressive disabling skeletal deformity. He was diagnosed with MCTO at 31-years-old, where a de novo pathogenic heterozygous variant in NM_005461.5:c.212C>A: p.(Pro71His) of the MAFB gene was identified. While there has been little data on the long-term prognosis and life expectancy of this disease, this case report sheds light on the debilitating disease course with multiple significant morbidities of a patient with MCTO throughout his lifetime of 33 years.

INTRODUCTION: The wrist joint is a complex anatomical structure, and various radiographic parameters are utilized to assess its normal alignment and orientation. Among these parameters are carpal height ratio (CHR) and ulnar variance (UV). Previous literature has indicated that factors such as age and gender may influence these parameters; However, there is a lack of studies investigating these differences specifically in the Middle East or Jordan. Additionally, no prior research has explored the relationship between UV and CHR. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate these critical radiological parameters and their associations. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional study design was employed, wherein a total of 385 normal wrist X-rays were reviewed, and CHR and UV were measured. Intra-observer and inter-observer reliability assessments were conducted to ensure the consistency and accuracy of measurements. Additionally, the association between UV and CHR was measured and plotted for further analysis. RESULTS: In our study, the mean CHR was 0.5 (range: 0.4 to 1.5), and the mean UV was - 0.3 mm (range: -5.8 mm to 4.1 mm). We found a significant negative correlation between CHR and age (p < 0.05). No significant gender differences were observed in UV and CHR. Additionally, a weak positive correlation was found between UV and CHR (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.13, p = 0.01; adjusted R2 = 0.014, p = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Age correlated significantly with a decline in carpal height ratio. Additionally, ulnar variance had a week positive yet significant correlation with carpal height ratio. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Cross-sectional study, Level III.

PURPOSE: Although proximal row carpectomy (PRC) has increasingly been shown to have superior features to four-corner fusion (4CF), individual surgeons may remain convinced of the superiority of one procedure based on personal experience and individual biases. Hence, we sought to perform an updated meta-analysis with some of the largest studies to date to compare outcomes and complications between these procedures in the treatment of scapholunate advanced collapse and scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse wrists. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed per Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane were queried for articles on PRC and 4CF performed for scapholunate advanced collapse and scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse wrist. Primary outcomes included wrist range of motion; grip strength; outcome measures, including Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand and Quick Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores, Patient-Rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation, and visual analog scale pain scores; and surgical complications. RESULTS: Sixty-one studies reported on 3,174 wrists, of which 54% were treated with PRC and 46% were treated with 4CF. The weighted mean follow-up was 61 months (range, 12-216 months). Meta-analysis comparing PRC and 4CF demonstrated that PRC had significantly greater postoperative extension; ulnar deviation; postoperative improvement in extension, flexion, ulnar deviation; and visual analog scale score. No comparisons showed significant differences in grip strength. The percentage of wrists requiring arthrodesis was 5.2% for PRC and 11% for 4CF. There was an 8.9% (57/640 wrists) 4CF nonunion rate and 2.2% (17/789) hardware removal rate after 4CF. CONCLUSIONS: In the treatment of scapholunate advanced collapse and scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse wrists, PRC results in better outcomes and a lower complication rate compared to 4CF. TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic IV.

BACKGROUND: In wrist salvage, proximal row carpectomy (PRC) has increasingly shown superior outcomes to four-corner fusion (4CF). Furthermore, PRC with resurfacing capitate pyrocarbon implants (PRC + RCPIs) provides a treatment option that may allow patients to avoid 4CF or wrist arthrodesis and help restore natural joint function and distribute loads evenly across the implant, though RCPI has yet to be evaluated on a large scale. We aimed to compare outcomes between PRC and PRC + RCPI for the treatment of scapholunate advanced collapse (SLAC) and scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) wrists. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed per Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane were queried for articles on PRC and PRC + RCPI performed for SLAC and SNAC wrist with minimum 12-month follow-up. Primary outcomes included wrist range of motion (ROM), grip strength, and outcome scores including Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) and QuickDASH scores, Patient-Rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE), and visual analog scale pain scores. RESULTS: Twenty-two studies reporting on 1,804 wrists were included (1,718 PRC alone, 86 PRC + RCPI). PRC + RCPI was associated with greater postoperative radial deviation, but poorer flexion. PRC + RCPI also had significantly lower postoperative QuickDASH (less disability and symptoms) and postoperative PRWHE (lower pain and disability) scores and an improvement in PRWHE compared with PRC. There was no significant difference in grip strength. CONCLUSION: PRC + RCPI demonstrated similar postoperative ROM to PRC alone. While PRC + RCPI was associated with more favorable outcome scores, further research is needed to confirm these findings and assess the incidence and profile of complications related to RCPIs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the successful surgical management of a previously unreported Salter-Harris type I fracture of the accessory carpal bone in a dog. ANIMAL: An 11-week-old intact female Golden Retriever-Poodle cross presented with a history of a marked left forelimb lameness following a suspected fall from a height. CLINICAL PRESENTATION, PROGRESSION, AND PROCEDURES: On physical examination, the patient demonstrated a severe left forelimb lameness and pain on palpation and range of motion of the left carpus. Orthogonal radiographs of the distal left forelimb demonstrated a type I Salter-Harris fracture of the accessory carpal bone with proximal displacement of the palmar fragment. TREATMENT AND OUTCOME: The patient underwent open reduction and internal fixation wherein the fracture was reduced and stabilized with two 1.1-mm Kirschner wires. Postoperatively, the patient was initially managed with a carpal flexion bandage for 2 weeks and then a soft padded bandage was maintained until 4 weeks postoperatively. The patient recovered well and was walking and weight-bearing comfortably following removal of the carpal flexion bandage. Repeat radiographs performed 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively demonstrated adequate fracture healing but showed mild proximocaudal implant displacement. Implant removal was not performed, as the patient was doing well at home and the implant migration appeared static and was not causing clinical morbidity. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: To the authors' knowledge, this was the only reported case of a Salter-Harris fracture of the accessory carpal bone in a dog and the only described case of successful surgical stabilization.

Trait functionality can act as a constraint on morphological development. Traits that become vestigialized can exhibit unstable developmental patterns such as fluctuating asymmetry (FA) and variation in populations. We use clearing and staining along with morphometric analyzes to compare FA and allometry of limbs in Western lesser sirens (Siren nettingi) to Ouachita dusky salamanders (Desmognathus brimleyorum). Our results describe new carpal phenotypes and carpal asymmetry in our sample of S. nettingi. However, we found no significant evidence of limb length asymmetry in S. nettingi. The degree of relative limb asymmetry correlates inversely with body size in both of our samples. This work provides strong evidence of increased mesopodal variation within a population of S. nettingi. Our work provides a basis for further study of a broader range of morphological traits across salamanders.

The complexity of wrist anatomy and mechanics makes it challenging to develop standardized measurements and establish a normative reference database of wrist biomechanics despite being studied extensively. Moreover, heterogeneity factors in both demographic characteristics (e.g. gender) and physiological properties (e.g. ligament laxity) could lead to differences in biomechanical behaviour even within healthy groups. We investigated the kinematic behaviour of the carpal bones by creating a virtual web-like network between the bones using electromagnetic (EM) sensors. Our objective was to quantify the changes in the carpal bones' biomechanical relative motions and orientations during active wrist motion in the form of orb-web architecture. Models from five cadaveric specimens at different wrist positions: (1) Neutral to 30° Extension, (2) Neutral to 50° Flexion, (3) Neutral to 10° Radial Deviation, (4) Neutral to 20° Ulnar Deviation, and (5) Dart-Throw Motion - Extension (30° Extension/10° RD) to Dart-Throw Motion Flexion (50° Flexion/20° UD), in both neutral and pronated forearm have been analyzed. Quantification analyses were done by measuring the changes in the network thread length, as well as determining the correlation between the threads at different wrist positions. We observed similarities in the kinematic web-network patterns across all specimens, and the interactions between the network threads were aligned to the carpal bones' kinematic behaviour. Furthermore, analyzing the relative changes in the wrist web network has the potential to address the heterogeneity challenges and further facilitate the development of a 3D wrist biomechanics quantitative tool.

BACKGROUND: Four-corner arthrodesis with scaphoid excision (FCA) and proximal row carpal resection (PRC) are frequently performed in wrists with post-traumatic Scaphoid Non- Union Advanced Collapse (SNAC)/Scapho-Lunate Advanced Collapse (SLAC) osteoarthritis. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of these two procedures. METHODS: This single-center, retrospective cohort study included all patients who had PRC or FCA between January 1st, 2009 and January 1st, 2019 and who were followed up. Follow-up included: mobility (radial deviation, ulnar deviation, flexion, extension), strength (grip test, pinch test), function (QuickDash, patient-rated wrist evaluation [PRWE]), subjective mobility, and global satisfaction scores. RESULTS: Among 25 patients included, 11 had PRC and 14 had FCA with a mean follow-up of 69.5 months [12-132]. Radial deviation was 18° versus 14° (p = 0.7), ulnar deviation was 21° versus 22° (p = 0.15), flexion was 39° versus 30° (p = 0.32), extension was 32.5° versus 29.5° (p = 0.09), grip test compared to the controlateral side was 72% versus 62% (p = 0.53), Quick Dash score was 12.5 versus 17.6 (p = 0.84), PRWE was 18.7 versus 17.6 (p = 0.38), subjective mobility was 7.8 versus 7.5 (p = 0.23), and satisfaction score was 8.7 versus 9 (p = 0.76), respectively, in the FCA group and the PRC group. Re-operation rates were 14% patients in the FCA group and 0% in the PRC group. CONCLUSION: This study found no significant difference between FCA and PRC on strength, mobility, and function in patients with post-traumatic SLAC or SNAC stage II wrist arthritis. Both FCA and PRC seem to be reliable surgical techniques with good outcomes with more revision in the FCA group.

BACKGROUND: The risk of carpal injury in racehorses may be related to the morphology, yet whether carpal morphologies are set from birth or change through growth remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To quantify carpal bone changes through growth. METHOD: Twenty privately owned Thoroughbred foals born between January 2022 and May 2023 were radiographed bimonthly from birth to 10 months of age. Imprint training was used to take radiographs safely without chemical restraints. Fifteen individual and 11 relative angular carpal parameters were measured using ImageJ on dorsopalmar radiographs of the carpus at zero degrees of vertical and horizontal rotation. Associations with age (growth), sex and the differences between left and right limbs were analysed separately using a linear mixed effects model. RESULTS: Six individual carpal parameters changed with age (radial carpal joint [RCJ], Prx.dor. radial carpal [Cr], Prx.Cu, Dis.dor. third carpal [C3], Dis.pal.C3 and Dis.pal. intermediate carpal), and one was influenced by side, that is higher in the left carpus (Dis.pal.Cr). Seven relative parameters changed with age, and one relative parameter was influenced by side, that is higher in the left (Ra.met-RCJ). The proximo-dorsal bone surface angle of Cr and disto-dorsal bone surface angle of C3 became flatter over time, which may be associated with the re-direction of the load towards the sagittal carpal plane. Sex did not influence any of the carpal parameters, nor did the combined effect of age, side of the limb and sex. CONCLUSION: Specific individual and relative angular carpal parameters changed significantly over time and some differed between the left and right limb, whereas other parameters did not change. The steeper carpal bone angles achieved proximally with the parameters that did change may improve stability by redirecting the load more medially through the carpus and the proximal and distal bones.

The treatment of carpal boss is primarily conservative. Surgical treatment by performing a wedge excision of the bony protrusion, is possible. However, a common belief exists that carpal boss should not be operated because of the high recurrence rate. Additionally, little is known about the clinical outcomes of wedge excision and the preferred post-operative treatment. Patients with carpal boss and persisting pain who underwent wedge excision after conservative treatment were included. They received questionnaires before and three months after surgery. The primary outcomes were pain and hand function measured using patient-reported wrist evaluations (PRWE). Secondarily, recurrence, patient satisfaction and time until return to work were evaluated. These clinical outcomes were also compared between patients who received a plaster splint or a pressure dressing post-operatively. 76 patients were included. Three months after surgery, a significant improvement in PRWE was seen, for both pain and function. A re-operation rate for recurrent carpal boss of 13% was observed. After three months, 58% of patients were satisfied and 73% had returned to work. While no differences in clinical outcomes were found, patients were more satisfied after receiving a pressure dressing than a plaster splint post-operatively. The current study demonstrates encouraging early outcomes after wedge excision, and a low recurrence re-operation rate. Furthermore, a pressure dressing seems preferable post-operatively compared to a plaster splint.

Septic arthritis is common in newborn calves due to poor birth and housing hygiene. This study investigated the pathological deformities caused by arthritis in the carpal bones of calves using geometric morphometry. The changes in the carpal joint bones of newborn calves with septic arthritis were examined through shape analysis. The study included 20 healthy Simmental calves and 30 Simmental calves with septic arthritis. Dorso-palmar x-ray images of the carpal joint were taken, and geometric morphometry was performed on these images using 25 landmarks. The first principal components (PC1) represented 26.92% of the total variation, while PC2 represented 13.84%. One of the most significant shape changes with increasing PC1 occurred in the os carpi intermedium. The study found that it was statistically possible to discriminate between radiometric carpal joint images of Simmental calves in the control and arthritis groups using geometric morphometry. In newborn calves with septic arthritis, the trochlea radi was located more proximally. There was an enlargement of the os carpi intermedium and a tendency towards the os carpi ulnare in female calves with septic arthritis. These results indicate significant bone deformation due to septic arthritis. Geometric morphometric methods can be clinically useful, as demonstrated in this study. Researchers can statistically explore these shape analyses, opening new avenues for research in this field. This method not only enhances our understanding of morphological changes but also provides a framework for clinical investigations and discoveries in related areas.

Background: Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) is a rare disease of osteoskeletal tissue. Cytodiagnosis of PVNS on fine needle aspiration (FNA) smears is therefore rarely reported. The PVNS usually affects the larger joints. The involvement of the smaller joints and bones are uncommon. Case presentation: The reported case is one such rarity wherein the diagnosis of PVNS was carried out on the FNAC. The case showed the involvement of all carpal bones except for the pisiform. The 2 nd- 5 th metacarpal bases were also found to be involved in the disease process. The presence of sheets of synoviocytes with brown altered hue to the cytoplasm along with multinucleate giant cells and pigmented macrophages were characteristically present in the smears of FNA. The diagnosis was confirmed on the tissue biopsy. The present case is reported for its unusual multiosteotic involvement of wrist joint bones and the metacarpal bones simultaneously with radiological evidence. The cytomorphology of the lesion in the present case were noteworthy as a learning experience in reporting of PVNS of wrist joint on FNA smears.

Background: Perilunate injuries are complex injuries typically arising from high-energy injuries to the wrist. Standard treatment involves open reduction and internal fixation with ligamentous reconstruction; however, outcomes are fraught with complications including pain, stiffness, and arthrosis. Several case reports have demonstrated the role of proximal row carpectomy as a salvage procedure for complex carpal trauma in the setting of significant cartilage injury or bone loss. The authors believe that proximal row carpectomy may be an appropriate acute treatment in certain patient populations, with functional results similar to those obtained with ligamentous reconstruction. Methods: A retrospective review of two cases with perilunate dislocations managed with primary proximal row carpectomy are presented. Results: At greater than 1-year follow-up, both patients had stable radiocarpal alignment. Quick-DASH scores were 22.7 and 27.3. Conclusion: Primary proximal row carpectomy is a treatment option in the acute setting for perilunate injuries in elderly, lower-demand patients. Functional results are similar to those obtained with ligamentous reconstruction, with a shorter recovery period. Level of Evidence: IV.

INTRODUCTION: dislocations of carpal bones without associated fractures are considered a rare injury, the most common mechanism of injury being axial loading with wrist in extension plus ulnar deviation. The literature reports a wide variety of complex carpal injuries, even so, it is possible to identify previously undescribed injuries. OBJECTIVE: to present an atypical case of a patient with an injury to the midcarpal stabilizing mechanism and the stabilizing mechanism of the proximal row of the wrist following trauma to the hand that required carpectomy as definitive surgical treatment. PRESENTATION OF CASE: a 48 year old male patient is presented who is admitted to our hospital unit after presenting injury to the left hand after being run over by a motor vehicle, with axial load mechanism, presenting deformity in the left thoracic extremity, fracture of the proximal metaphysis of the second phalanx of the third finger as well as dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint, with traumatic amputation of the second phalanx of the fourth finger plus extensor injury in zone V of the fifth finger with loss of skin coverage of the fourth and fifth finger, attending our hospital unit 24 hours after the injury. CONCLUSIONS: carpal bone dislocations are an orthopedic emergency, with 20% going unnoticed in trauma centers. Early closed reduction is the initial treatment to avoid severe complications, however, surgical treatment is the gold standard for fixation. Carpectomy is considered a mostly adequate sequelae management treatment, however it is well accepted for complex injuries to the wrist stabilization mechanisms, as it can be performed in a short surgical time and early rehabilitation can be initiated and functional ranges of motion can be achieved with low sequelae.
INTRODUCCIÓN: las luxaciones de los huesos del carpo sin presentar fracturas asociadas se considera una lesión infrecuente; el mecanismo de lesión más común es la carga axial con muñeca en extensión más desviación cubital. La literatura reporta una gran variedad de lesiones complejas del carpo; aun así, es posible identificar lesiones no descritas previamente. OBJETIVO: presentar caso atípico de paciente con lesión a nivel del mecanismo estabilizador medio-carpiana y estabilizador de la fila proximal de la muñeca posterior a traumatismo en mano que requirió carpectomía como tratamiento quirúrgico definitivo. PRESENTACIÓN DEL CASO: paciente masculino de 48 años de edad, quien ingresa a nuestra unidad hospitalaria tras sufrir lesión en mano izquierda posterior a ser arrollado por vehículo automotor, con mecanismo de carga axial, presentando en extremidad torácica izquierda deformidad hacia volar, fractura de metáfisis proximal de segunda falange del tercer dedo así como luxación de articulación interfalángica proximal, con amputación traumática de segunda falange del cuarto dedo más lesión extensora en zona V del quinto dedo con pérdida de cobertura cutánea del cuarto y quinto dedos. Acude a nuestra unidad hospitalaria 24 horas después de la lesión. CONCLUSIONES: las luxaciones en huesos del carpo es una urgencia ortopédica, pasando desapercibidas en 20% en centros de traumatología. La reducción cerrada temprana es el tratamiento inicial para evitar complicaciones severas; sin embargo, el tratamiento quirúrgico es el estándar de oro para la fijación de las mismas. La carpectomía se considera un tratamiento mayoritariamente para el manejo adecuado de secuelas; sin embargo, es bien aceptado para las lesiones complejas que se presentan en los mecanismos estabilizadores de la muñeca, dado a que se puede realizar en un tiempo quirúrgico y se puede iniciar una rehabilitación temprana, con lo que se pueden alcanzar rangos de movimientos funcionales y con bajo grado de secuelas.

Abstract Carpal bone tumors must be investigated in clinical cases of chronic wrist pain with no previous trauma. Intraosseous ganglion, enchondroma, osteoid osteoma, and, less commonly, osteoblastoma are potential causes of osteolytic lesions affecting the carpal bones. In most cases, the clinical presentation alone is not enough to differentiate such lesions. Knowledge of certain characteristics, including the radiological and histopathological aspects of each of these tumors, is critical in order to make the differential diagnosis. We present a rare case of osteoblastoma of the capitate bone and review the literature on the subject.
Resumo Os tumores dos ossos do carpo devem ser investigados em quadros clínicos de dor crônica no punho sem trauma prévio. Gânglio intraósseo, encondroma, osteoma osteoide, e, menos comumente, osteoblastoma são possíveis causas de lesões osteolíticas que afetam os ossos carpais. Na maioria dos casos, a apresentação clínica por si só não é suficiente para diferenciar essas lesões. Conhecer características como o aspecto radiológico e histopatológico de cada uma delas é parte fundamental do diagnóstico diferencial. Apresentamos um caso raro de osteoblastoma do osso capitato, e também fazemos uma revisão da literatura sobre o assunto.

SUMMARY: In the study, it was aimed to predict sex from hand measurements using machine learning algorithms (MLA). Measurements were made on MR images of 60 men and 60 women. Determined parameters; hand length (HL), palm length (PL), hand width (HW), wrist width (EBG), metacarpal I length (MIL), metacarpal I width (MIW), metacarpal II length (MIIL), metacarpal II width (MIIW), metacarpal III length (MIIL), metacarpal III width (MIIIW), metacarpal IV length (MIVL), metacarpal IV width (MIVW), metacarpal V length (MVL), metacarpal V width (MVW), phalanx I length (PILL), measured as phalanx II length (PIIL), phalanx III length (PIIL), phalanx IV length (PIVL), phalanx V length (PVL). In addition, the hand index (HI) was calculated. Logistic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), K-nearest neighbour (KNN) and Naive Bayes (NB) were used as MLAs. In the study, the KNN algorithm's Accuracy, SEN, F1 and Specificity ratios were determined as 88 %. In this study using MLA, it is understood that the highest accuracy belongs to the KNN algorithm. Except for the hand's MIIW, MIIIW, MIVW, MVW, HI variables, other variables were statistically significant in terms of sex difference.

Las mediciones se realizaron en imágenes de RM de 60 hombres y 60 mujeres. Parámetros determinados; longitud de la mano (HL), longitud de la palma (PL), ancho de la mano (HW), ancho de la muñeca (EBG), longitud del metacarpiano I (MIL), ancho del metacarpiano I (MIW), longitud del metacarpiano II (MIIL), ancho del metacarpiano II (MIIW), longitud del metacarpiano III (MIIL), ancho del metacarpiano III (MIIIW), longitud del metacarpiano IV (MIVL), ancho del metacarpiano IV (MIVW), longitud del metacarpiano V (MVL), ancho del metacarpiano V (MVW), longitud de la falange I (PILL), medido como longitud de la falange II (PIIL), longitud de la falange III (PIIL), longitud de la falange IV (PIVL), longitud de la falange V (PVL). Además, se calculó el índice de la mano (HI). Regresión logística (LR), Random Forest (RF), Análisis discriminante lineal (LDA), K-vecino más cercano (KNN) y Naive Bayes (NB) se utilizaron como MLA. En el estudio, las proporciones de precisión, SEN, F1 y especificidad del algoritmo KNN se determinaron en un 88 %. En este estudio que utiliza MLA, se entiende que la mayor precisión pertenece al algoritmo KNN. Excepto por las variables MIIW, MIIIW, MIVW, MVW, HI de la mano, otras variables fueron estadísticamente significativas en términos de diferencia de sexo.

Introducción: Las fracturas aisladas del hueso grande son muy infrecuentes en los niños y se producen por traumatismos de alta energía. Pueden pasar desapercibidas en la valoración inicial y las radiografías solo permiten identificar las lesiones en huesos osificados, por lo que son necesarias pruebas complementarias, como la resonancia magnética, para descartar posibles lesiones del carpo asociadas, sobre todo en menores de 10 años. Se presenta el caso de una fractura aislada del hueso grande con aparición de quiste sinovial por causa traumática en un paciente pediátrico, tratado mediante inmovilización con yeso antebraquial durante cuatro semanas, con buena evolución. Conclusión: El manejo de estos casos depende de la gravedad de la lesión y, aunque por lo común evolucionan bien con un tratamiento conservador, su diagnóstico precoz permite elegir la mejor opción y evitar posibles complicaciones, como la falta de consolidación o la necrosis avascular.

Introduction: Isolated capitate fractures, caused by high-energy trauma, are rare in children. They can be missed at the initial assessment of the patient and radiographs only allow the identification of lesions in ossified bones, so complementary tests such as magnetic resonance imaging are necessary to rule out possible associated carpal lesions, especially in children under 10 years old. We present the case of an isolated capitate bone fracture with the appearance of a synovial cyst due to trauma in a pediatric patient, treated by immobilization with a short arm cast for four weeks, with good evolution. Conclusion: The management of these cases depends on the severity of the injury. In most cases conservative treatment is enough but early diagnosis allows us to choose the best option and avoid possible complications as nonunion or avascular necrosis. Level of Evidence: IV

Abstract Isolated pisiform dislocation is a rare lesion with few cases described in the literature. This type of lesion is typically observed in young males and can be easily overlooked at first assessment. Isolated proximal dislocation is more common due to the action of the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) muscle. We present the case of a 19-year-old male patient with isolated distal pisiform dislocation after wrist trauma. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation with Kirschner wires with excellent functional outcomes. Although there is no consensual therapeutic method, closed reduction is a first-line treatment for acute presentations. Pisiform open reduction or excision may be performed alternatively or after a failed closed reduction.
Resumo A luxação isolada do pisiforme é uma lesão rara com poucos casos descritos na literatura. Esse tipo de lesão é observado tipicamente em adultos jovens do sexo masculino e pode ser facilmente negligenciada numa primeira avaliação. A luxação proximal isolada é mais comum devido à ação do flexor ulnar do carpo (FUC). Apresentamos o caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, com 19 anos de idade, com luxação distal isolada do pisiforme após traumatismo do punho. O paciente foi submetido a uma redução aberta e fixação interna com fios de Kirschner com excelente resultado funcional. Apesar de não existir um método de tratamento consensual, a redução fechada perfila-se como tratamento de primeira linha na apresentação aguda. Em caso de insucesso ou como método alternativo pode-se optar pela redução aberta ou a excisão do pisiforme.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Basketball sports will effect on the morphology and structure of the hand bones and joints. Objective: The article selected nine professional basketball players (basketball group) and 11 non-basketball players (control group) in the provincial youth team. A 64-row spiral computed tomography scan was used to scan the wrist and three-dimensional reconstruction. The volume of each carpal bone and the computed tomography value (bone density) were measured. Methods: To explore the influence of basketball sports on the hand bones and joints' morphological structure, the paper analyzes the structural characteristics of the computed tomography images of young male basketball players' wrist bones. Results: Compared with the carpal bones in the control group, the volume of the right navicular bone and the small polygonal bone, the left-hand navicular bone, the large triangular bone, and the small polygonal bone in the basketball group increased significantly (P<0.05). Conclusions: Basketball can increase the volume of the part of the wrist bones of adolescent male athletes and reduce the bone density; the morphological structure of the non-smashing wrist bones of basketball players has similar changes to that of the spikers. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
RESUMO Introdução: O basquetebol afetará a morfologia e a estrutura dos ossos e articulações da mão. Objetivo: o artigo selecionou nove jogadores profissionais de basquete (grupo de basquete) e 11 não jogadores de basquete (grupo de controle) da equipe juvenil da província. Uma tomografia computadorizada espiral de 64 linhas foi usada para digitalizar o punho e a reconstrução tridimensional. O volume de cada osso do carpo e o valor da tomografia computadorizada (densidade óssea) foram medidos. Métodos: Para explorar a influência dos esportes de basquete sobre os ossos da mão e a estrutura morfológica das articulações, o artigo analisa as características estruturais das imagens de tomografia computadorizada de ossos do punho de jovens jogadores de basquete do sexo masculino. Resultados: Em comparação com os ossos do carpo no grupo de controle, o volume do osso navicular direito e o osso poligonal pequeno, o osso navicular esquerdo, o osso triangular grande e o osso poligonal pequeno no grupo de basquete aumentaram significativamente (P <0,05). Conclusões: O basquete pode aumentar o volume dos ossos do punho de atletas adolescentes do sexo masculino e reduzir a densidade óssea; a estrutura morfológica dos ossos do pulso que não se quebram em jogadores de basquete tem mudanças semelhantes às dos espigões. Nível de evidência II; Estudos terapêuticos- investigação dos resultados do tratamento.
RESUMEN Introducción: el baloncesto afectará la morfología y la estructura de los huesos y articulaciones de la mano. Objetivo: El artículo seleccionó nueve jugadores de baloncesto profesionales (grupo de baloncesto) y 11 jugadores no baloncesto (grupo de control) en el equipo juvenil provincial. Se utilizó una tomografía computarizada en espiral de 64 filas para escanear la muñeca y la reconstrucción tridimensional. Se midieron el volumen de cada hueso del carpo y el valor de la tomografía computarizada (densidad ósea). Métodos: Para explorar la influencia de los deportes de baloncesto en la estructura morfológica de los huesos de la mano y las articulaciones, el artículo analiza las características estructurales de las imágenes de tomografía computarizada de los huesos de la muñeca de los jóvenes jugadores de baloncesto. Resultados: En comparación con los huesos del carpo en el grupo de control, el volumen del hueso navicular derecho y el hueso poligonal pequeño, el hueso navicular izquierdo, el hueso triangular grande y el hueso poligonal pequeño en el grupo de baloncesto aumentaron significativamente (P <0,05). Conclusiones: El baloncesto puede aumentar el volumen de los huesos de la muñeca de los deportistas varones adolescentes y reducir la densidad ósea; la estructura morfológica de los huesos de las muñecas que no se rompen de los jugadores de baloncesto tiene cambios similares a los de los atacantes.

Abstract Objectives The present study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic failure rate in detecting perilunate fractures and dislocations using plain wrist radiographs by orthopedists and orthopedic residents. A secondary objective was to identify possible groups with a greater or lesser chance of establishing a correct diagnosis. Methods An online questionnaire was sent to several orthopedists through e-mail, social networks, and smartphone-based communication applications to assess the rate of diagnostic failure in detecting perilunate fractures and dislocations using plain radiographs. Results A total of 511 responses was obtained, with a diagnostic error rate of 8.81% for simple dislocations and 1.76% for trans-scaphoid perilunate fractures. Group stratification showed that residents presented the highest error rates in simple perilunate dislocations (23.91%), whereas hand surgeons presented the lowest error rates (1.74%). Conclusion Compared with the literature, the failure rates found were lower, suggesting that plain radiography is effective and that the error rate may not be as high as reported.
Resumo Objetivos O presente estude teve como objetivo avaliar o índice de falha diagnóstica na detecção de fraturas e luxações perilunares do carpo utilizando radiografias simples do punho por ortopedistas e residentes de ortopedia. Secundariamente, identificar possíveis grupos que apresentem maior ou menor chance de acerto diagnóstico. Métodos Foi aplicado um questionário online a diversos ortopedistas através de e-mail, redes sociais e aplicativos de comunicação via smartphone, para avaliar o índice de falha diagnóstica na detecção de fraturas e luxações perilunares utilizando radiografias simples. Resultados Foram obtidas 511 respostas e observado um índice de erro diagnóstico de 8,81% para as luxações simples e 1,76% para fratura transescafoperilunar. Ao estratificar por grupos, os médicos residentes obtiveram os maiores índices de erro nas luxações perilunares simples (23,91%), já os cirurgiões de mão obtiveram os índices mais baixos (1,74%). Conclusão Ao comparar com a literatura, os índices de falha encontrados foram menores, sugerindo que a radiografia simples é eficaz e que o índice de erro pode não ser tão elevado quanto o relatado na literatura.
