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.

Hallux interphalangeal joint sesamoidectomy

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 1996
Painful lesions on the plantar aspect of the interphalangeal joint of the great toe respond well to surgical excision of the accessory bone found lying superior to or within the flexor hallucis longus tendon. Several incisional approaches are available, each with potential advantages and disadvantages.

Distal Interphalangeal Joint Arthrodesis

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2014
CURRENT OPINION Kirschner wires have high fusion rates but risk pin track infection. Intraosseous wires have also resulted in high fusion rates, but have the disadvantages of implant prominence and a secondary procedure for implant removal in some cases.

Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Sprains

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1984
We report the first series of proximal interphalangeal joint sprains and reviewed 50 sprains in 48 patients. The majority of patients were males injured at work. The radial collateral ligament was injured about twice as often as the ulnar ligaments. The little finger was injured significantly less than the others. Proximal interphalangeal joint sprains

Hallux Interphalangeal Joint Arthrodesis

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2009
Multiple osteotomies and forms of fixation have been proposed for arthrodesis of the hallucal interphalangeal joint. In this brief article, the authors present their preferred "V"-shaped osteotomy combined with the use of internal fixation to allow for intrinsic stability and compression across the fusion site.

Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Arthritis

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2010
Proximal interphalangeal joint function is critical for proper finger and hand function and arthritis of this joint can lead to considerable hand impairment. Proximal interphalangeal joint arthritides are broadly categorized into nonerosive and erosive osteoarthritis (OA), posttraumatic arthritis, and inflammatory arthritis.

Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Arthroplasty

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1984
Prosthetic implant arthroplasty of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint has a limited role in the reconstruction of the rheumatoid hand. Ninety-three PIP joint arthroplasties, including 56 Flatt, 30 Swanson, and seven Niebauer implants, were reviewed with postoperative follow-up periods averaging 6.2 years. The average maximum extension/flexion for

Distal Interphalangeal Joint Injuries

Hand Clinics, 1988
Pain-free stability in the DIP joint is essential for effective stable pinch. Distal interphalangeal joint injuries usually achieve this function when treated as described. Stiffness in the DIP joint is not ideal, but its presence after treatment is not a major functional limitation if the joint is painless and aligned in the proper position.
