The Conservative Management of the Carpometacarpal Joint Fracture-Dislocation: A Case of the Second to the Fifth Ray.
Cureus
December 2024
Orthopedic Department, Laiko General Hospital of Athens, Athens, GRC.
Carpometacarpal (CMC) joint fractures-dislocations are rare due to the complex structure of the carpal bones and strong ligamentous support; while the clinical image is usually "noisy," they present significant management challenges due to the unstable nature of the injury. These injuries are typically caused by high-energy trauma and frequently result in dorsal dislocations. Treatment requires a careful balance between the immobilization and surgical restoration of the anatomical alignment to prevent complications.

Purpose: Thumb basal joint arthroplasty (BJA) performed for thumb basal joint arthritis is associated with high patient satisfaction. However, complications requiring reoperation occur, with a previously reported early reoperation rate (within 2 years) of 1.5%.

Article Synopsis
- Total wrist arthrodesis is an option for treating severe wrist osteoarthritis after other treatments fail, serving as a last-resort procedure.
- Patients generally report satisfaction post-surgery, but may still experience pain and limited wrist movement.
- Frequent complications arise, often relating to incomplete bone fusion or hardware issues, and further research is needed to determine the best implant and treatment approach.
Surgical options and outcomes for treatment of osteoarthritis of the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint.
J Hand Surg Eur Vol
January 2025
Institut de la main Nantes-Atlantique, Saint-Herblain, France.
Osteoarthritis of the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint is frequent but often pain-free or well tolerated with non-surgical treatment. Surgical options are numerous and none seems to have clear evidence of superiority. In addition to well-established procedures, such as scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint arthrodesis, distal scaphoid resection and trapeziectomy, more recent surgical techniques have been reported.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea.
The unique saddle articulation of the trapeziometacarpal joint allows for a wide range of motion necessary for routine function of the thumb. Inherently unstable characteristics of the joint can lead painful instability. In this study, we modified a surgical dorsal ligament reconstruction technique for restoring trapeziometacarpal joint stability.
