Total thumb carpometacarpal arthroplasty for failed trapeziometacarpal joint arthrodesis [PDF]
Trapeziometacarpal joint arthrodesis is a surgical option for osteoarthritis of the first carpometacarpal joint; however, it has well-known disadvantages such as non-union and reduced mobility.

Multi-body simulation of a human thumb joint by sliding surfaces [PDF]
The development of anthropomorphic robotic grippers requires profound knowledge about the functionality of the human hand. For investigating its kinematic and dynamic properties, numerous biomechanical models have been established based on the assumption

First Carpometacarpal Joint Dislocation and Review of Literatures.
Dislocation of the first carpometacarpal (CMC) is a rare occurrence. Treatment of this dislocation varies from closed reduction and casting to ligament repair. Neglected dislocation or incomplete reduction of the 1(st) CMC cause chronic instability and painful arthritis, muscle imbalance and decreased grip force.
