Simultaneous dislocations of the carpometacarpal and metacarpophalangeal joints of the thumb

Simultaneous double of both interphalangeal joints dislocation of same finger in a volleyball player: A case report

“…Firstly, dislocation distal interphalangeal joint, proximal interphalangeal joint is dislocated to following hyperextension force is affected to the middle phalanx. Thus, dislocation of both interphalangeal joints of one finger occurred consecutively [1,7].…”

“…That injury mechanism is hyperextension forcefully movement direction on both joint in a finger. Once, impacting on the volar aspect of the distal phalanx, causing dislocating the distal inter phalangeal joint and then dislocating the proximal interphalangeal joint [7].…”

“…Surgical treatment is needed to only in case of neglected dislocation, open injuries, volar plate or ligament injuries, associated fracture and tendon injuries [1,7].…”

Floating thumb metacarpal in a motorcyclist: A case report

“…Simultaneous double thumb dislocation seems to be a very rare injury [1][2][3][4][5][6]; it was first described by Moore in 1978 and later named ''floating thumb metacarpal'' by Drosos et al [2].…”

“…Their treatment is very controversial. In stable closed reductions, some suggest conservative treatment with cast immobilization to maintain the reduction, but there is a risk of long-term instability [1,[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Other authors prefer Kirschner-wire stabilization independent of the reduction method [2,3,12,13].…”
