DOI: 10.1177/1558944720948241
Abstract: BACKGROUND Ulnar metacarpal base fractures can destabilize the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint, prompting surgical stabilization. Studies investigating this injury are limited by small case volumes. Our purpose is to review the surgical techniques, outcomes, and complications… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/15589447251389656
Abstract: Traumatic dislocation of the thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint is relatively rare. Although there are scattered reports of such dislocations, they are all in the dorsoradial direction. We report a very rare case of an ulnar… read more here.
