The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2008
Isolated traumatic dislocation of the thumb carpometacarpal joint, also called the trapeziometacarpal joint, is a rare injury. Controversy still exists concerning which ligaments are the true key stabilizers for the joint and therefore need to be damaged to result in dislocation, and optimal treatment strategies for thumb carpometacarpal joint ...

Carpometacarpal Joint Osteoarthritis

2017
The carpometacarpal joint (CMC), with its complex demands of both stability and mobility, is prone to arthritis for a variety of reasons. The CMC joint is formed by the trapezium bone of the wrist and the first metacarpal bone of the thumb. Due to its relative instability, this joint is a common site of pain. CMC osteoarthritis (OA) of the thumb occurs

Carpometacarpal Joint Disease: Addressing the Metacarpophalangeal Joint Deformity

Hand Clinics, 2008
The successful surgical treatment of arthrosis of the carpometacarpal articulation of the thumb requires a thorough understanding and evaluation of the intercalated axis of the first ray. A hyperextension/adduction deformity commonly occurs at the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb with advanced stages of carpometacarpal arthrosis.

Injuries to the carpometacarpal joints can be pure dislocations or fracture dislocations. The injuries can be specific to a single joint or in combination with other joints. Some dislocations are successfully treated nonoperatively but many benefit from some sort of stabilization, commonly percutaneous Kirschner wire (K-wire) fixation.

First Carpometacarpal Joint Instability: Dorsal Ligament Reconstruction

Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2020
The first carpometacarpal (CMC-I) joint has an elaborate ligamentous support. Recent evidence has demonstrated that the dorsal ligament group is imperative for joint stability and that CMC-I joint instability may occur as a consequence of trauma and ligamentous laxity, and other conditions, with possible CMC-I subluxation and the development of ...
