Specializes in Hand Surgery

Rare: This is an extremely rare injury. I have practiced hand surgery for 23 years and never seen an isolated triquetral fracture. Carpal bones have limited blood supply so healing can be slow. Could be 10 - 12 weeks in children and depends on fracture location and success of reduction.
