A restrospective study identified 47 thumb MP joints in 41 patients who underwent arthrodeses using cup and cone osteotomy secured with Kirschner-wire fixation and augmented with local bone graft from the thumb metacarpal. Union rate was 96% averaging 6.8 weeks. Two patients had nonunion; 6.3 year follow-up of 15 thumbs showed improvement of or no pain. MHQ scores were 56.5 in the operative hand and 66.7 in the contralateral hand. Thumb MP arthrodesis augmented with local bone graft negates the morbidity of obtaining distant graft. It is a safe and effective technique that provides excellent pain relief with an acceptable union rate.

Maxillary Tuberosity

The periodontal treatment of teeth with furcation defect is clinically challenging. In cases of class II furcation defects, the regenerative surgery shows low morbidity and good prognosis when correctly indicated. The aim of the presentstudy is to report a treatment option for class II furcation defect through autogenous bone graft associated with the Bichat’s fat pad. Case report: A 59-year-old female patient was diagnosed with class II furcation defect in the left mandibular first molar. The treatment comprised surgical reconstruction of the defect with a combination of maxillary tuberosity bone graft and Bichat’s fat pad. The clinical and radiographic follow-up of 180 days showed bone formation inthe furcation area and absence of probing depth. Conclusion: An association of autogenous graft form the maxillary tuberosity with a Bichat’s fat pad proved to be a safe, low cost, and effective therapy for the regenerative treatment of class II furcation.
