Abstract
A 52-year-old man sustained an injury to the right wrist following a fall into a push-up position. Direct-access outpatient physical therapy evaluation was performed 24 hours after the injury. A scaphoid radiograph series, consistent with American College of Radiology guidelines, was obtained based upon examination findings. The radiographs revealed a scapholunate gap of 4 mm and a scapholunate angle of greater than 60°, suggestive of scapholunate dissociation.
