Approximately 2 mm of the distal aspect of the trapezium is resected and the dorsal surfaces of the trapezium and first metacarpal base are abraded to obtain bleeding bone, facilitating ingrowth under the wings. ... residual trapezium and distal pole of the scaphoid." In the fourth patient undergoing explant (between visits 2 and 3), the ...
Firstly, subsidence was defined as the difference in ratio of cup height to trapezium height between the 2 time points (Fig. 2). Secondly, we inspected the cups for progressive tilting. Thirdly, on radiographs taken 2 weeks postoperatively, the size of any residual calcification was measured in millimeters relative to the distal rim of the cup.
Salvage procedures should focus on treatment of residual arthritis between the index metacarpal and the trapezoid or the distal scaphoid and trapezoid, which are the more likely cause of residual pain.
Trapezium resection arthroplasty and SBS in patients with osteoarthritis of the TMC joint in this Colombian cohort showed satisfactory results regarding functional recovery and pain relief.
Because of the potential that scaphotrapezoid arthritis may cause residual symptoms following trapezium excision arthroplasty, and in light of the low sensitivity of radiographs, routine intraoperative assessment of the joint is recommended so that proximal trapezoid excision can be performed if degenerative change is present.
The distance between the center of the trapezium bone and the cup prosthesis can be studied in the sagittal view by drawing two concentric circles (one based on the trapezium and the other on the prosthesis cup) and then measuring …
Results: The average differences in trapezium height and M1-M2 ratio pre- and post-surgery were, respectively, 1.8 mm (SD ± 1.7; p < 0.001) and 0.04 mm (SD ± 0.04; p = 0.017). Pre-to-postoperative M1 axis length increased by an average of 2.98 mm (SD ± …
Displaced fractures should be treated operatively in young active individuals because residual step-off may give a higher risk trapezio-metacarpal or scapho-trapezium-trapezoid osteoarthritis. 25 Percutaneous Kirschner's wire fixation, oblique external traction, and open reduction and internal fixation have all been reported in the literature ...

Flexion was measured as the distance in centimeters from the head of the small
esection of the trapezium and interposition arthroplasty with or without ligament recon-struction for thumb trapeziometacarpal (TMC) degenerative joint disease generally has been a successful …
Because the thumb is a very mobile joint, it lacks the stability to withstand repetitive stress and wears down easily over time. When this happens, the cartilage in the joint between the trapezium and metacarpal bones will …
It is not uncommon to see residual shells of trapezium on postoperative radiographs after piecemeal resection of the trapezium. Although not all residual trapezium will be problematic, those located at the metacarpal base between the first …
The trapezium is released from its surrounding attachments, and a corkscrew trapeziectomy tool is inserted into it to serve as a joystick. Using a McGlammry elevator, the trapezium is excised. ... In total, 4 patients experienced complications or residual symptoms. Two patients had transient superficial radial nerve neurapraxia. Of the 2 ...
A trapeziectomy is a surgery used to treat thumb arthritis when conservative treatments fail. It involves removing a bone in the wrist, called the trapezium, and replacing it either with a tendon from your own body or a metal or silicone implant.

Using a McGlammry elevator, the trapezium is excised. A second incision is then made on the dorsal aspect of the second metacarpal, the dorsal branch of the dorsal radial sensory

esection of the trapezium and interposition arthroplasty with or without ligament recon-struction for thumb trapeziometacarpal (TMC) degenerative joint disease generally has been a successful and reliable surgery.1–12 Failure of this surgery to achieve the intended result of pain-free thumb motion and improved pinch and grasp is un-
The results of the present study, which show that patients had some residual pain and activity limitations at a mean of 17 years postsurgery, can be used to counsel patients with regard to expectations.
Trapezial space height, expressed as a percentage of the trapezial space height from the 3-month postoperative x-ray, represented the long-term metacarpal subsidence. Trapezial height was defined as the distance between the metacarpal base and the distal scaphoid or residual trapezium .
Example 2: Find the fourth angle of the right trapezium if one of the given angles is 60°. Solution: As we know, in a right trapezium, there are 2 right angles and the sum of all the interior angles in a trapezium is always 360°. So, if one of the given angles is 60°, let the missing angle be x°. The fourth angle can be calculated as x° + 90° + 90° + 60° = 360°. ⇒ x° = 360° - (90 ...

Mechanical pain included contact of the thumb metacarpal with the residual trapezium (if present), trapezoid, or scaphoid. 17,20-22 Motion was recorded in degrees with a goniometer at the base of the thumb as full extension (or radial abduction of the thumb metacarpal) and palmar abduction.

Trapezium resection arthroplasty and SBS in patients with osteoarthritis of the TMC joint in this Colombian cohort showed satisfactory results regarding functional recovery and pain relief.
The biomechanical consequence of primary CMC arthroplasty is a common cause of failed surgery. By removing the trapezium, the architectural harmony between the thumb and carpus is disrupted.
Scapho-trapezoid osteoarthritis may accompany osteoarthritis of the CM joint of the thumb. If the scapho-trapezoid joint is not excised when performing an excision of the trapezium with ligament reconstruction and interposition of the tendon of the FCR, the procedure may be unsuccessful.
