Abstract

Dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint is relatively rare. We present the case of a 19 year old male left handed Nigerian, who had a complex dorsal dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint of his left index finger. Following 2 failed attempts at closed manipulative reduction, he had a successful open reduction under a wrist block. 7 weeks post-surgery, he has full range of motion in the affected hand with normal function comparable to the contralateral hand.
