Abstract
Congenital fusions of the carpal bones are rare anomalies, which occur in less than 1% of the population. This article describes a congenital pisiform hamate coalition which became symptomatic when caused by a trauma. The condition was successfully treated with the resection of the synchondrosis, autogenous bone graft, and screw stabilization.Entities:
