Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis: pyrocarbon interposition implants. [PDF]
the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of interposition arthroplasty of the trapeziometacarpal (TMC) joint with pyrolitic carbon implants for the treatment of TMC osteoarthritis.we evaluated two groups of patients surgically treated for TMC osteoarthritis: group 1 (34 patients - 36 TMC joints) treated with PyroDisk implantation and ...

Trapeziometacarpal subluxation predisposes to incident trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis (OA): the Framingham study [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the thumb carpo-metacarpal joint is a common condition that can lead to substantial pain, instability, deformity, and loss of motion. It has been hypothesized that instability of the trapeziometacarpal joint combined with strenuous use can potentially lead to OA.

Surgical treatment of trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis [PDF]
Trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis is a common cause of radial-sided wrist pain that prevalently affects women. It is diagnosed on the basis of a thorough history, physical examination, and radiographic evaluation. While radiographs are used to determine the stage of disease, treatment is dependent on the severity of the symptoms.

First metacarpal osteotomy for trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis [PDF]
We report a long-term follow-up of abduction-extension osteotomy of the first metacarpal, performed for painful trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis. Of a consecutive series of 50 operations, 41 thumbs (82%) were reviewed at a mean follow-up of 6.8 years. Good or excellent pain relief was achieved in 80%, and 93% considered that surgery had improved hand

Histopathological analysis of the synovium in trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis [PDF]
Dorsoradial and anterior oblique ligaments were harvested during surgery in 13 patients with symptomatic trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis, which had been graded preoperatively by a modified Eaton-Littler radiographic grading. Ligaments, including the periligamentous synovium, were stained with S100 protein, neurotrophic receptor p75, protein gene ...

Thumb rotation patterns during pinch in patients with trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Trapeziometacarpal joint stability during pinch depends on the balance between the opponens pollicis and the first dorsal interosseous muscles, which control pronation and supination of the first metacarpal, respectively. Disruption of this
