Compression Arthrodesis of Finger Joints

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979
Compression arthrodesis is useful for treatment of finger and thumb joints in arthrosis, scleroderma, hypermobile joints, paralytic deformities, and rheumatoid arthritis. A dorsal incision exposes the joint. Its surfaces are prepared in a ball-and-socket arrangement using a high-speed burr.

Fracture Dislocation of the Finger Joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2014
Fracture dislocations of the hand are difficult and often unforgiving injuries. Keys to treatment include early recognition, stable concentric reduction, and protected early active range of motion maintaining joint stability. The balance between stability and mobility is difficult to manage; therefore, surgeons need a wide array of treatments to tailor

Finger Joint Biomechanics

1979
The proximal interphalangeal and metacarpo-phalangeal joints of the index fingers of four normal healthy female subjects were studied, using a three-dimensional biomechanical analysis. The activities investigated included the application of an isometric twisting moment on a fixture representing a water tap and pinching a 45 mm cylinder between the ...

Metacarpophalangeal-Joint Dislocations of the Fingers

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1967
1. Four cases of metacarpophalangeal dislocations of the fingers are presented. 2. The trapping elements of the little-finger dislocation are described. 3. With the techique described, open reduction is easy and the reduction is stable and does not require transfixation of the joint. 4.

Imaging Finger Joint Instability with Ultrasound

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2013
Closed injuries affecting the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints and their stabilizers in the thumb and fingers occur very commonly in athletes, possibly leading to finger joint instability and long-standing or permanent disability. This article reviews the spectrum of joint injuries of the thumb and fingers that are common in the athletic ...

Joints of the Fingers

2002
The metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints of the fingers, like the joints of the toes (see Chap. 12), have become accessible to arthroscopic examination and treatment.

METACARPOPHALANGEAL JOINT INJURIES IN FINGERS

Hand Clinics, 1992
Although uncommon, injuries to the MP joints of fingers must not be ignored. A loss of function in even a single MP joint can seriously impair overall hand function. The potential dire consequences of these injuries can be avoided by an accurate diagnosis at the time of injury and the institution of appropriate treatment.

The Coordination of Finger-Joint Motions

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1963
An anatomical study of finger movements has been reviewed. It has been shown that the function of a muscle with respect to a certain joint cannot be inferred from the position of the muscle with respect to that one joint alone. In the fingers, especially, the tendons bridge more than one joint; a number of joints must be analyzed before it can be ...

Septic Joints

Hand Clinics, 2020
Infections in the joints of the hand and wrist carry the risk of significant morbidity. Common presenting symptoms include joint redness, swelling, and pseudoparalysis that occurs several days following a penetrating trauma. Diagnostic workup should be expedited, including a laboratory evaluation and arthrocentesis.

Joint Injuries of the Fingers and Thumb

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1985
Prompt recognition of the magnitude of articular damage is essential for optimal management of digital joint injuries. Basic to this concept is the need to differentiate injuries that can be successfully treated by closed techniques from those that require surgery.
