Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis: pyrocarbon interposition implants.
PURPOSE 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. METHODS we evaluated two groups of patients surgically treated for TMC osteoarthritis: group 1 (34 patients - 36 TMC joints) treated with PyroDisk implantation and group 2 (25 patients - 25 T...
متن کاملPyrocarbon spacer as a trapezium replacement for arthritis of the trapeziometacarpal joint; a follow-up study of 60 cases.
Rhizarthrosis is the most common degenerative joint disease of the hand, affecting about 10% of the population. We report our results with trapezium replacement using a pyrocarbon spacer. Between January 2005 and April 2010, 70 patients underwent trapeziectomy with interposition of a pyrocarbon spacer. Sixty patients were examined at an average follow-up of 23.6 (5-64) months after the operatio...
متن کاملLocalized Component Analysis for Arthritis Detection in the Trapeziometacarpal Joint
The trapeziometacarpal joint enables the prehensile function of the thumb. Unfortunately, this joint is vulnerable to osteoarthritis (OA) that typically affects the local shape of the trapezium. A novel, local statistical shape model is defined that employs a differentiable locality measure based on the weighted variance of point coordinates per mode. The simplicity of the function and the smoo...
متن کاملA Promising Thumb Basal Joint Hemiarthroplasty for Treatment of Trapeziometacarpal Osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND Trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis is a painful, disabling condition that primarily affects women who are postmenopausal. Arthroplasty has been performed to treat this condition; however, subluxation has been a problem with all previous implants. We report the results of hemiarthroplasty using a prosthesis designed to address the problems associated with previous implants. QUE...
متن کامل[Shape-memory osteosynthesis for trapeziometacarpal joint arthrodesis].
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Arthrodesis of the trapeziometacarpal joint is the method of choice in the treatment of degenerative arthritis of this joint. This procedure was indicated most frequently in middle-age patients doing hard manual labor. Methods for achieving a solid fusion of the trapeziometacarpal joint are known and often reported in the literature. Frequently, they are associated with som...
