{Abstract}: Intra-articular lipomas are infrequently reported, with most reported cases occurring in the knee joint. A case of intra-articular lipoma in the small joints of the hand, specifically in the pisotriquetral joint, has been documented for the first time. A 24-year-old male visited the emergency department after a road traffic accident with a painful and swollen wrist. Radiographic examination revealed fractures of the distal radius and triquetrum. A subsequent wrist computed tomography scan identified an intra-articular lipoma within the pisotriquetral joint, further confirmed by ultrasonography. This article underscores the importance of recognizing that, though exceedingly rare, intra-articular lipomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors affecting the hand and wrist.
