| Popis: | To delineate a hamate hook fracture, a radiograph was obtained with maximal radial deviation of the wrist and maximal abduction of the thumb. This view is easy and cost-effective to obtain, and it may prove helpful in diagnosing suspected hamate hook fractures or locating the cause of unexplained ulnar wrist pain. |
