Prognostic factors for the recovery of hand function following trapeziectomy with ligamentoplasty stabilisation.

27 Jul 2009 INTRODUCTION: Numerous procedures are in use to treat trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis. Most of these techniques impair hand function. In a series of trapeziectomies stabilized by ligament reconstruction with tendon suspension, we investigated ... Read more...

Basal joint osteoarthritis of the thumb treated with Weilby arthroplasty: a prospective study on the early postoperative course of 106 consecutive cases.

6 Jul 2009 One hundred and six consecutive cases of osteoarthritis of the trapeziometacarpal joint, treated by tendon interposition arthroplasty as described by Weilby, were followed prospectively, with assessment of pain, mobility, pinch and grip strength at ... Read more...

Trapezium resection with suspension and interposition arthroplasty using acellular dermal allograft for thumb carpometacarpal arthritis.

2 Jun 2009 PURPOSE: Trapezium excision with ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition has proved to be highly effective in the treatment of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis. Donor-site morbidity from autograft harvest can be avoided by using an ... Read more...
