Isolated dislocation of the carpal-metacarpal joint of the thumb or Trapezio-metacarpal (TMC) is a rare but challenging lesion, and represents 1% of all fractures of the hand. There is still controversy about the best treatment for this pathology. Acute TMC joint dislocation is usually managed by three treatment modalities: closed reductionand immobilization with a cast, closed or open reduction with Kirschner wires fixation,and reconstruction or repair of ligaments and capsulorrhaphy.Suture anchor repair is currently being used as the primary treatment for unstable dislocations.The aimof the present work is to review two cases of carpo-metacarpal dislocation of the thumb treatedby reduction and Kirschner wiresfixation,and show their evolution.
