Fleege MA(1), Jebson PJ, Renfrew DL, Steyers CM Jr, el-Khoury GY. Author information: (1)College of Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City 52242. Fractures of the pisiform are often missed due to improper radiographic evaluation and a tendency to focus on other, more obvious injuries. Delayed diagnosis may result in disabling sequelae. A high index of clinical suspicion and appropriate radiographic examination will establish the correct diagnosis. Ten patients with pisiform fracture are presented. The anatomy, mechanism of injury, clinical presentation, radiographic features, and evaluation of this injury are discussed. DOI: 10.1007/BF00241660
