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. These include scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal arthroplasty and arthroscopic treatment. This article provides an overview of the procedures and their outcomes that can be proposed for isolated scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal joint osteoarthritis and when combined with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the thumb carpometacarpal joint or of the radiocarpal and midcarpal joints.

Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis is frequently associated with scaphotrapeziotrapezoid osteoarthritis. Long-term outcomes have not been reported for trapeziometacarpal protheses in patients with radiological pan-trapezial osteoarthritis that is symptomatic only in the trapeziometacarpal compartment. The primary objective of this retrospective multicenter multi-operator study was to evaluate the effectiveness of trapeziometacarpal arthroplasty for pain relief in patients with radiographic pan-trapezial osteoarthritis without symptomatic scaphotrapeziotrapezoid involvement.

Dual mobility total joint arthroplasty is gaining popularity for trapeziometacarpal joint (TMCJ) arthritis, with evolving indications, surgical technique and rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to obtain detailed insight into the variations in indications, surgical technique and rehabilitation for TMCJ arthroplasty with dual mobility implants, across a large international cohort of surgeons. The secondary aim was to analyse if there were differences in TMCJ arthroplasty between highly and less experienced surgeons.
