Localized 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 کاملThe kinesiology of the thumb trapeziometacarpal joint.
To measure the motions of the trapeziometacarpal joint of the thumb quantitatively, a roentgenographic method was developed and tested using T-shaped metal markers, a special cassette-holder, and biplane roentgenograms. Two experiments were performed. In the first one, the metal markers were fixed to the trapezium and third metacarpal in ten cadaver specimens, and a fixed spatial relationship b...
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...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis.
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. Non-surgical treatment frequently consists of activity modi...
متن کاملTrapeziometacarpal joint replacement with the Arpe prosthesis.
The purpose of the study was to assess the subjective outcome and five-year survival of non-cemented total joint replacement of the trapeziometacarpal joint with the Arpe prothesis. Forty-nine hands were operated on. Outcome scores were obtained with a mean follow-up of 6 years (range: 3-11 years) for 35 prostheses. Mean disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score was 8, mean visual a...
