| Abstrakt: | Dorsal dislocations of proximal interphalangeal joint with palmar lip fractures base of middle phalanx of fingers are rare, complex, and often a challenging injury to the treating hand surgeons especially in those chronic cases. Hemi-hamate arthroplasty is the preferred surgical option in treating chronic dorsal fracture-dislocations of the proximal interphalangeal joint. We report two cases with a chronic injury that have been treated with hemi-hamate arthroplasty. Range of motion, pinch and grip strengths, QuickDASH scores, complications, and radiological findings were recorded at follow-up. Good functional outcomes were observed in both patients without major complications. Hemi-hamate arthroplasty can be a reliable surgical treatment for chronic proximal interphalangeal joint fracture-dislocations.
