A 38 year-old patient was admitted to the emergency department after road accident due to pain on palpation of the right wrist, the 1^st and the 2nd finger of the right hand. The patient was subsequently referred for an X-ray. Following the proper positioning of the patient and the systematic analysis of the wrist X-ray (PA and lateral view), a lunate dislocation was diagnosed (Fig. A). A CT scan of the right wrist was then performed, at the request of the surgeon, which clearly demonstrated the lunate dislocation and an additional triquetral fracture (Fig. B).
