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 کاملCapitate pyrocarbon prosthesis in radiocarpal osteoarthritis.
Scapholunate dissociation or scaphoid pseudarthrosis may lead to osteoarthritis of the wrist. When osteoarthritis affects the midcarpal joint, proximal row carpectomy is no longer possible and only 4 corners fusion or capitolunate arthrodesis may be indicated. However, in some cases, osteoarthritis or bone necrosis may involve the lunatum, making partial arthrodeses impossible. Total arthrodesi...
متن کاملLong-term Outcomes after Primary Radial Head Resection Arthroplasty vs. Acute Radial Head Resection vs. Secondary Prosthetic Removal in Comminuted Radial Head Fractures
Background: Aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological long-term outcomes following operativetreatment of comminuted radial head fractures using 1) primary radial head resection arthroplasty, 2) acute radial headresection, or 3) necessary secondary prosthetic removal. Additionally, we evaluated complex radial head fracturescombined with elbow dislocation and verified the hyp...
متن کاملComparison of bioreplaceable interposition arthroplasty with metatarsal head resection of the rheumatoid forefoot.
BACKGROUND Interposition arthroplasty with bioreplaceable poly-L/D-lactic acid (PLDLA) implants has been studied in Finland with promising results in reconstruction of the rheumatoid hand. We evaluated this material in a series of patients with rheumatoid forefoot deformities. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five patients were randomized to either PLDLA metatarsophalangeal joint interposition ar...
متن کاملPyrocarbon interposition wrist arthroplasty in the treatment of failed wrist procedures.
Treatment of failures after prior wrist surgeries with major articular destruction is challenging. In most cases, total wrist fusion is the only possible salvage procedure. We propose a new interposition arthroplasty with a pyrocarbon implant called Amandys. A total of 16 patients, 14 men and 2 women, with a mean age of 56 years were operated on for a failure of wrist surgery performed previous...
