Résumé
Isolated ejection of the scaphoid proximal pole in perilunate injuries is rare, with only 4 reports in the literature, and does not correspond to the biomechanical situations in the Herzberg or Mayfield classifications. Bone ejection incurs a risk of avascular necrosis despite good osteosynthesis, notably because of precarious vascularization. We present a case of scaphoid proximal pole ejection and a theoretical hypothesis of the biomechanics of this injury. Level of evidence: 4.
