From the Department of Trauma Surgery and Sports Traumatology, Academic Hospital Feldkirch, Feldkirch, Austria

Correspondence: Dr Michael Osti, Department of Trauma Surgery and Sports Traumatology, Academic Hospital Feldkirch, Carinagasse 47, Austria. Tel. +43 5522 303 9106; fax: +43 5522 303 7530. E-mail: michael.osti{at}lkhf.at

Combined fracture of the scaphoid and capitate bones with concurrent scapholunate dissociation, but without severe dislocation, is a rare lesion which results in significant carpal instability and requires operative treatment. We report a case of this unusual injury and its functional result after 20 months.

Key Words: scapholunate dissociation • scaphoid fracture • scapho-capitate fracture syndrome
