INTERPHALANGEAL JOINT ARTHRODESIS

Hand Clinics, 1994
Interphalangeal joint fusion is a salvage procedure to achieve stability and pain relief and to correct deformity. The multiple fixation techniques for fusion are outlined. Paramount to successful arthrodesis are appropriate preparation of the joint surfaces and careful positioning and coaptation of the bone ends.

Conditions of the Interphalangeal Joints

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 1989
The various conditions of the interphalangeal joint are presented; these include degenerative joint disease and osteochondral chip fractures of the proximal interphalangeal joint, fractures of the middle phalanx affecting proximal and/or distal interphalangeal joints, subluxation and osteochondrosis of the proximal interphalangeal joint, and arthrosis ...

Fractures of the Distal Interphalangeal Joint

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1996
Fractures at the distal interphalangeal joint present a therapeutic challenge to the hand surgeon because of the relatively small bones and joint surfaces involved and the limited internal fixation devices available. Knowing which patients and which fractures are best treated surgically is key to a successful result. The normal anatomy and biomechanics

Osteoarthritis of the Distal Interphalangeal Joint

Hand Clinics, 1987
DIP joint arthritis may be painful and interfere with function of a finger or the entire hand. When conservative measures are no longer adequate to control the symptoms, operative intervention may be recommended. Arthrodesis is the procedure of choice in most situations, although specialized functional requirements may justify an attempt to maintain ...

ANATOMY OF THE PROXIMAL INTERPHALANGEAL JOINT

Hand Clinics, 1994
The proximal interphalangeal joints (PIPs) of the fingers are crucial for normal digital and hand function. Studies of their anatomy reveal subtle bony differences that dictate the precise planes of motion allowed in the constrained joint. Soft tissue restraints guide the cartilaginous surfaces through permissible ranges of motion.
