A Rare Case of a Scapholunate Ligament Rupture in a Prepubescent Child

Scapholunate Ligament (SLL) rupture remains a rare entity in the realm of paediatric injuries and can be difficult to diagnose due to the incomplete ossification of the carpal bones in young children. The treatment of such injuries can be complicated as there is the possibility of disrupting growth in the immature carpus with surgical intervention, or ongoing wrist instability with non-operative management.
