Abstract
The thumb and its corresponding joints are important for daily life activities. Although rare, injuries to this apparatus would greatly affect any patient’s quality of life. We present in this article a case of a man who had a traumatic trapezium-thumb metacarpal base fracture-dislocation, a pattern described in the literature with no consenus on the treatment of choice, treated with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning with excellent functional and radiological results.
