Abstract
Fracture of the pisiform is a rare injury, more so in isolation, with literature limited to few case reports and series. No uniform guidelines for its management have been drafted owing to the rarity of condition. A direct injury or another associated with falls on an outstretched hand have been the causative mechanisms. Injuries related to use of mobile phones while walking are recently on rise in the contemporary scientific literature. The present report about a pisiform fracture related to distraction resulting in a fall while texting on a mobile phone is a rare association with this uncommon injury. The injury, however, was diagnosed and managed appropriately to yield an excellent functional outcome. [Hand Microsurg 2016; 5(3.000): 152-155]
