Abstract
Avascular necrosis of the hamate is a rare condition, only one case having been reported in the literature (Van Demark and Parke, 1992). This reflects the relative rarity of fractures of the body of the hamate and the arrangement of the intraosseous vascular anatomy. A case is presented, which was diagnosed by MR Imaging and treated surgically.Entities:
