Abstract

Pisiform fractures are frequently disregarded, potentially as a result of improper radiography analyses and a propensity to concentrate on more obvious injuries. The correct diagnosis must be made with a high level of clinical suspicion and a proper radiographic evaluation; failing to do so could have incapacitating effects. Because of its anatomical location, the pisiform bone is more susceptible to direct impact. Furthermore, pisotriquetral joint osteoarthritis outcomes may further support a late diagnosis. We intend to emphasize the anatomy, mechanism of injury, clinical manifestation, radiographic findings, and treatment of the pisiform fracture in this article.

Key words: Hand trauma, Osteoarthritis, Pisiform fractures
