A case report demonstrates successful closed reduction in DRUJ dislocations, suggesting less invasive options.
Irreducible distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocations are often caused by bony impingement rather than soft tissue entrapment alone. Careful analysis of CT scans can identify the specific locking mechanism, allowing for successful closed reduction through a targeted “unlocking” maneuver, thereby avoiding open surgery.
