AYALA-HERNANDEZ, E; ARRONIZ-SOSA, M; BERMUDEZ-SOTO, I  y  OCHOA-NOYOLA, Z. Axial-fracture dislocation of the carpal bone, report of three cases and literature review. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2014, vol.28, n.3, pp.189-192. ISSN 2306-4102.

We report three cases of axial-fracture dislocation of the carpal bone treated in our department. The three men were between thirty and forty years old who had a work related crushing fracture. We performed an open reduction and stabilization with pins in all cases; patients were then referred to physical medicine and rehabilitation. We assessed the wrist function at ten months using the Mayo Wrist Score and with X-rays to evaluate postoperative results. In this summary we present three examples of patients who suffered these injuries with "good", "satisfactory" and "poor" outcomes.
