Thumb Metacarpophalangeal Joint

Metacarpo-phalangeal (MCP) joint dislocation is a rare occurrence which commonly involves index and little finger. Thumb MCP joint dislocation is a pretty rare pathology. MCP joint dislocations are classified into dorsal or volar types. They are further categorized as incomplete, simple complete and complex complete. Complex complete MCP joint dislocation requires surgical reduction most of the times because of tissue entrapment in joint. In the present case report, a case of two and a half months old complex complete thumb MCP joint dislocation left in 18-year old male encountered which was irreducible by closed means and required surgical intervention. Dorsal hand surgical approach was utilized for reduction of dislocation. This unusual, difficult and rare case of two and a half months old complex complete dorsal dislocation of the thumb MCP joint is presented in this case report.

Post Traumatic

The paper presents a post-traumatic anomaly of the metacarpal joint of a front limb of a female red deer, which was the cause of joint dislocation. This anomaly arose due to an incorrect positioning of the limb during movement, especially during fast running, most probably when the frightened animal was escaping from danger. Other mechanical causes cannot be excluded, such as entrapment of the limb in a net fence for crops and forest youngsters, which is commonly used to protect the forest from wild animals. The study showed that the resulting injury had led to secondary degenerative changes and deformities of the lopsided axis of the limb. The result was an incorrect directional orientation of the metacarpal bone and toes, and consequently of the hooves of the third and fourth fingertips. At the same time, the second and fifth toes, residual in this species, became retarded. The joint dislocation led to an incorrect positioning of the hooves during the animal’s movement and, consequently, to their excessive growth. These changes, however, despite their long-standing character, did not affect the animal’s condition, as evidenced by its carcass weight, which was above average for a female deer of this age and in this region of Poland.

Unusual Case Report

An unusual case of suspected lateral subtalar joint dislocation was reported. A review of the literature found that medial dislocations were reported four times more frequently than lateral dislocations. Half of the cases of subtalar dislocation reviewed here described associated fractures, the incidence of which was higher in lateral dislocations. In both types of dislocations examined, almost half were reduced nonoperatively. In most cases, long-term results of repair of these injuries were considered favorable.
