Finger joint contact areas and pressures
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1985AbstractAlthough the joints of the index finger are similar geometrically and kinematically, the occurrence of degenerative joint disease is more frequent and severe in the distal interphalangeal joint. Much circumstantial evidence exists to suggest a mechanical cause for the observed differences in frequency.

Fracture Dislocation of the Finger Joints
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2014Fracture 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

Marketing Finger-Jointed Timber
1982The paper makes the point that a finger-joint in itself is not useful to end users or specifiers, it is what the manufacturer can achieve by using finger-jointing which is useful. Therefore the marketing effort has to be aimed at making finger-jointing acceptable to end users and specifiers so that a manufacturer can use the process whenever convenient

RESTORATION OF RHEUMATOID FINGER-JOINT FUNCTION
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1963Metallic hinged prostheses have been used in an attempt to restore some function to the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints of fingers involved by rheumatoid arthritis. Indications for prosthetic replacement at the proximal interphalangeal joint are considered to be: (1) gross joint destruction, (2) persistent swan-neck deformity ...

Oxidation of Silicone Elastomer Finger Joints
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2007We analyzed the oxygen content of 19 retrieved implants and 6 packaged implants to further understand the mechanism of degradation of silicone elastomer finger joints while in vivo.Nineteen Swanson (Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, TN) silicone elastomer finger joints were retrieved at revision surgery at an average of 7 years of use. Six packaged

CARPOMETACARPAL JOINT INJURIES OF THE FINGERS
Hand Clinics, 1992Injuries to the carpometacarpal joints are uncommon and are sometimes overlooked on initial radiographs. Their recognition depends on a careful physical and radiographic examination that may require trispiral tomograms and CT scans. Most injuries can be treated successfully by closed reduction and percutaneous fixation of the joint(s) using Kirschner ...
