Özet

Although the airbag is designed to protect people from injury, it sometimes causes injuries. A case with open dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint and fractures of the ulna and of several ribs due to an airbag is presented. The treatment is reported and the prevention of this injury is discussed with the literature reviewed.
