Joint Arthritis

Basal joint arthritis of the thumb is usually seen in females beginning from the fourth and fifth decades. In the last two decades, arthroscopic techniques have brought new chances of diagnosis and treatment for this condition. In this paper, the authors describe the indications and their experience concerning arthroscopic hemitrapezectomy and tendon interposition using the palmaris longus tendon. A series of 16 patients with a maximum follow-up of 12 months is analysed. All of the 16 patients were followed and assessed with grasp strength, pinch strength, DASH and MAYO evaluation score both pre- and post-operatively at 12 months follow-up. According to the MAYO score, there were six excellent results, six good, three fair and one poor. No complications occurred. According to our preliminary results, this procedure with the proper indications gives a valid option for the treatment of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis in stages I and II according to Eaton's classification.

Meaningful Data

There are a number of possible assessments of functional outcomes for thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis. The most important and easiest to measure is pain, but it is not the only material outcome. Functional scores for measuring the outcome of the treatment of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis have been recommended for some time, but are still not widely used even in published studies. It is also unclear which functional scores are the most valuable. Easily used scores, such as the Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, are freely available, but may not be sensitive enough to assess outcomes especially of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthroplasty. The optimal functional outcome measurement would be weighted for the individual patient. A minimum dataset needs to be defined in order to compare studies and derive meaningful data.
