چکیده
○ Approach with care, especially with the branch of the dorsal sensory radial nerve, which is very close to the space between Abductor PollicisLongus and Extensor PollicisBrevis. ○ Freeing the base of the metacarpal is very importantin order to obtain a good view of the distal surface of the trapezium, because after an adequate resection of the base of the metacarpal and of the palmar beak it’s possible to dislocatethe metacarpalpalmarly. ○ To find the centre of the trapezium is easy, but extremely important, because of the size and final placement of the cup. Our first implantation of the Moovis prosthesis was done in March 2013.
