  ABSTRACT: Carpo-metacarpal dislocations are rare hand injuries. They are misdiagnosed due to their non-specific clinical signs. The authors report on their experience in the management of carpometacarpal dislocations in a specialized hand surgery center. Our study included patients received and treated in the department for a carpometacarpal dislocation. Dislocation fractures of Bennett and Rolando were excluded. The postoperative functional evaluation took place after 18 months by the DASH score. Twelve patients participated: one case of neuro-algodystrophy and one pin infection. The mean DASH functional outcome score was 1.10 at 18 months. Since carpometacarpal dislocations are rare and easily misdiagnosed, the surgeon should assume the possibility of them in patients with high-energy trauma, and imaging studies should be carefully evaluated. Pinning is an effective treatment option that provides good long-term functional results.
