Abstract
Radiographic confirmation in cases of suspected hook of hamate fractures can be very difficult. Films, including the carpal tunnel view, may be difficult to interpret. We describe a new semisupine oblique radiographic view of the carpus that permits excellent visualization of the hamate hook, is cost efficient, and allows for patient comfort during the study.Entities:
