We report outcomes of 228 consecutive patients with total joint arthroplasty using the Arpe® prosthesis, among which 216 trapeziometacarpal joints in 199 patients had a minimum of 10 years follow-up. The cumulative survival rate of the 216 implants at 10 years using the Kaplan–Meyer method was 93%. Two hundred joints were functional and painless. We found good integration and positioning of the components in 184 (93%) of the joints. Sixteen prostheses failed. We conclude that this implant has acceptable long-term survival rate and restores good hand function. We also report our methods to improve implant survival and to decrease the risk of component malpositioning, and failure rate. Level of evidence: II
