Abstract
Objective

To review the results of thumb trapeziometacarpal arthrodesis fixed by trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis with a rectangular plate.

Materials and methods

A retrospective review of trapeziometacarpal arthrodesis was performed. Sixteen arthrodeses with rectangular plate fixation were performed on 14 patients. The mean age was 54 years (range 44–60). The dominant hand was involved in 8 cases. The mean follow up was 28 months (range 10–46 months). The DASH score and Mayo Wrist Score were used for functional evaluation. The visual analogue pain scale was used for pain evaluation. The ability to perform activities requiring use of the thumb and the ability to return to work were also analysed. X-rays were evaluated to determine consolidation rates and development of adjacent joint degeneration.

Results

DASH score improved from 60 (range 50–85) to 25 (range 5–61) points. Overall mobility decreased, but the results regarding the performance of daily living activities were improved. All but one patient returned to their previous jobs. The average pain score improved from 6 (range 4–10) to 2 (range 0–9). There were no cases of radiographic degeneration progression in adjacent joints. Arthrodesis consolidation was achieved in all cases.

Conclusion

Trapeziometacarpal arthrodesis is a reliable procedure for thumb osteoarthritis.

Resumen
Objetivo

Evaluar los resultados obtenidos en la rizartrosis mediante artrodesis con placa de osteosíntesis cuadrangular.

Material y método

Estudio retrospectivo en 16 artrodesis (14 pacientes). La edad media fue de 54 años (rango 44-60). La mano afectada fue la dominante en 8 casos. El tiempo medio de seguimiento fue de 28 meses. La evaluación funcional se realizó mediante las escalas DASH y Mayo Wrist Score y la evaluación del dolor mediante la escala analógica visual (EVA). Se analizó pre y postoperatoriamente la capacidad de realizar actividades que implican a la articulación trapecio-metacarpiana y la reincorporación a su trabajo previo. Radiográficamente se analizó la consolidación y el desarrollo de artrosis en las articulaciones vecinas.

Resultados

La puntuación en la escala DASH mejoró, de 60 puntos preoperatoria a 25 postoperatoria. La movilidad global disminuyó, pero mejoró la capacidad de realizar actividades específicas. Todos los pacientes menos uno se reincorporaron a su trabajo previo. La EVA mejoró de 6 antes (rango 4-10) a 2 puntos después de la cirugía (ran-go 0-9). Se registró una pseudoartrosis y no vimos progresión de artrosis en articulaciones vecinas.

Conclusión

La artrodesis de la articulación trapeciometacarpiana con placa de osteosíntesis cuadrangular es una técnica eficaz y segura para el tratamiento de la rizartrosis
