Karpal koalisyon nadir görülen el bileği anomalisidir. İzole bir anomali veya sistemik sendromların kompenenti olarak görülebilir. Karpal koalisyon genelde asemptomatiktir ve insidental olarak saptanır. En sık rastlanan tip lunato-trikuetral koalisyondur, bunu kapito-hamate koalisyon takip eder. Diğer koalisyon tipleri oldukça nadirdir. Biz el bileği ağrısı şikayeti ile başvuran kapitatum-trapezoid-2 and 3 metakarpal koalisyonu saptanan olguyu görüntüleme bulguları ile sunmayı amaçladık

Coalition of trapezoid, capitate, and metacarpal: a case report

Abstract

Carpal coalition is a rare wrist anomaly. A coalition can be an isolated condition, but it can be observed as a component of a congenital syndrome as well. Carpal coalition is usually asymptomatic and detected incidentally. It is most frequently encountered as lunate-triquetral coalition, followed by capito-hamate coalition. Other coalition types are very rare. In this case report, we present a case in which the patient applied with complaints of pain, and in whom a coalition of capitate-trapezoid- second and third metacarpal was detected.
