Özet

Pisiform-hamate coalition is a rare form of carpal coalition. Only 14 cases of pisiform-hamate coalition have been reported in the English-language literature. We present a case of asymptomatic bilateral pisiform-hamate coalition in a 16-year-old boy. We also review the embryology, pathogenesis, and clinical features of pisiform and hamate coalition, along with the associated multidetector computed tomography findings.
