ABSTRACT
Volar dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint is a rare injury that is often missed at initial presentation. We report a 21-year-old male patient who presented 2 months after sustaining this injury. He was successfully managed by open reduction and reconstruction of the dorsal radioulnar ligament using a partial distally based extensor carpi ulnaris tendon strip. A literature review showed only a few reported cases with varied methods for management. The technique utilised is analysed in comparison to the others. Level of Evidence Level V (Therapeutic).
