It can be associated with ulnar nerve damage and detailed neurologic assessment is often warranted to avoid long term deficit. Early closed reduction usually leads to a good outcome. This case report describes an uncommon dorsal dislocation of the fifth Carpometacarpal joint in 33-year-old man. It was reduced under local anesthesia and stabilized in an ulnar gutter splint.
