A rare case of trans-triquetral dorsal perilunate dislocation is described. It differs from the Mayfield and Johnson theory of progressive perilunar instability in greater arc injuries which states that the injury passes from the radial to the ulnar carpal bones and soft tissues in stages. This injury supports the concept of a reverse greater arc injury from ulnar to radial being possible with the radial carpal bones being spared in some cases.

A young man presented with acute dislocation of the left elbow at the radio-capitellar articulation caused by trapping of the biceps tendon at the stalk of a solitary osteochondroma. There was no deformity of the ulna and radius shaft suggestive of a developmental growth disturbance of the forearm bones. Good reduction could be achieved by simple relocation of the biceps tendon. The osteochondroma was excised.
