CAPSULAR INJURIES OF THE PROXIMAL INTERPHALANGEAL JOINT

Hand Clinics, 1992
Although capsular injuries of the PIP joints are common, their management is frequently complicated. Successful treatment must begin with a detailed history because reviewing the mechanism of injury may provide information relevant to the pathomechanics of the capsular disruption and facilitate making an accurate diagnosis.

Proximal interphalangeal joint prosthetic arthroplasty

Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation, 2023
Surgical treatment of the painful proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint has evolved considerably over the past century. If arthrodesis has long been the gold standard and remains so for some, prosthesis would meet patient demand: mobility and indolence.

Arthroscopy of the Proximal Interphalangeal Joints of the Finger

Journal of Hand Surgery, 2002
Cadaveric studies were carried out to evaluate the technique, portals and possible indications for arthroscopy of the proximal interphalangeal joints of the finger. We suggest horizontal placement of the hand instead of using a traction tower, as it is important to be able to flex the joint freely.

Pilon fractures of the proximal interphalangeal joint

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1991
A pilon fracture is an uncommon intraarticular fracture of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint resulting in comminution, central depression, and splay, sagittally and coronally, of the articular surface of the base of the middle phalanx. This study reviews three treatment methods and results in 20 patients. Injury was produced by an axial load and

Therapy Concepts for the Proximal Interphalangeal Joint

Hand Clinics, 2018
The principles of hand therapy for proximal interphalangeal joint disorders include protecting injured structures, minimizing patient discomfort, and optimizing patient recovery. Comprehension of hand anatomy, the nature of the injury being treated, and the phases of healing are critical when designing a safe and effective hand therapy program.

Management of Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Injuries

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1999
Injuries about the PIP joint of the finger are commonly encountered by primary care physicians and are associated with significant morbidity, including pain, stiffness, instability, premature degenerative arthritis, and residual deformities. An accurate understanding of the regional anatomy and appreciation of the mechanism of injury allows for ...

Lateral stability of the proximal interphalangeal joint

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1986
Current diagnostic criteria and therapeutic guidelines for injuries to the collateral ligaments of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint are imprecise and vague. Laxity determinations, failure analysis, radiographic stress testing, and microscopic dissections were performed on 112 PIP joints.

StayFuse for Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Fusion

Foot & Ankle International, 2013
Background: Proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint fusion is a commonly performed procedure for lesser-toe deformities. There are various techniques described to accomplish it. We report the results of PIP joint fusion carried out with an intramedullary fusion device in 150 consecutive toes.

Capsulectomy of the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1979
From July 1975, through March, 1978, 105 metacarpophalangeal joint capsulectomies in 37 patients, 47 dorsal proximal interphalangeal (PIP) capsulectomies in 26 patients, and 65 volar PIP capsulectomies in 41 patients were performed. The procedures were done after conservative methods had failed, and the results were tabulated in each area by diagnostic
