Project description:Background: Silicone metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint arthroplasty has a high revision rate. It has been suggested that the preoperative degree of ulnar drift and radial wrist deviation influences the durability of MCP silicone arthroplasties. The goal of this study was to evaluate what factors are associated with reoperation after silicone MCP arthroplasty. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all adult patients who underwent MCP silicone arthroplasty between 2002 and 2016 at one institutional system for inflammatory arthritis. After manual chart review, we included 73 patients who underwent 252 arthroplasties. Fingers treated included 66 index, 67 long, 60 ring, and 59 small fingers. Results: The overall reoperation rate was 9.1% (N = 23). Indications for reoperation were implant breakage (n = 11), instability (n = 4), soft tissue complications (n = 4), infections (n = 3), and stiffness (n = 1). There was a trend that patients who underwent single-digit arthroplasty had higher rates of revision (19% vs 3.5%, P = .067). Radiographic follow-up demonstrated joint incongruency in 50% of cases, bone erosion in 58% of cases, and implant breakage in 19% of cases. There was a trend toward higher rates of revision in patients without preoperative MCP joint subluxation (19% vs 6.7%, P = .065) The 1-, 5-, and 10-year implant survival rates were 96%, 92%, and 70%, respectively. Revision surgery occurred at <14 months in 15 patients (65%) and after 5 years in 8 (35%) patients. Conclusions: Revision surgery after silicone MCP arthroplasty appears to be bimodal. Patients with greater hand function preoperatively may be at higher risk of revision surgery.

Project description:BackgroundOutcomes after implant arthroplasty for primary degenerative and posttraumatic osteoarthritis of the proximal interphalangeal joint were different according to the implant design and surgical approach. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate outcomes of various types of implant arthroplasty for proximal interphalangeal joint osteoarthritis, with an emphasis on different surgical approaches.MethodsThe authors searched all available literature in the PubMed and EMBASE databases for articles reporting on outcomes of implant arthroplasty for proximal interphalangeal joint osteoarthritis. Data collection included active arc of motion, extension lag, and complications. The authors combined the data of various types of surface replacement arthroplasty into one group for comparison with silicone arthroplasty.ResultsA total of 849 articles were screened, yielding 40 studies for final review. The mean postoperative arc of motion and the mean gain in arc of motion of silicone implant with the volar approach were 58 and 17 degrees, respectively, which was greater than surface replacement implant with the dorsal approach at 51 and 8 degrees, respectively. The mean postoperative extension lag of silicone implant with the volar approach and surface replacement with the dorsal approach was 5 and 14 degrees, respectively. The revision rate of silicone implant with the volar approach and surface replacement with the dorsal approach was 6 percent and 18 percent at a mean follow-up of 41.2 and 51 months, respectively.ConclusionSilicone implant with the volar approach showed the best arc of motion, with less extension lag and fewer complications after surgery among all the implant designs and surgical approaches.

Project description:The choice of prosthetic or autologous reconstruction for proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint arthroplasty in degenerative osteoarthritis represents a challenge for hand surgeons, especially in consideration of complications and patient's quality of life. We report the case of a 49-year-old woman who developed diffuse arthritis of the finger joints, especially at the PIP joint of the third right finger. Radiographs showed destruction of the PIP joint, large osteophytes, marked narrowing of joint space, severe sclerosis, and deformation of bone contour. Through a volar approach, we removed the osteophytes, reshaped the joint, and performed an arthroplasty with volar plate interposition. The patient had an improved range of motion at 3 months postoperatively. This case study gives a detailed description and discussion, together with literature revision, of volar plate interposition arthroplasty to treat PIP osteoarthritis, as an alternative to other methods.

Project description:Background: Proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) arthroplasty in border digits is controversial because of unprotected external loading forces and limited canal sizes in the small finger. The use of neither a semiconstrained, surface replacement proximal arthroplasty (SRA) nor a lateral approach that preserves the external collateral ligament has been well described. Methods: Eight women (mean age, 66 years) underwent SRA of 5 index and 4 small digits for osteoarthritis. Active range of motion, deformity, and grip and pinch strengths were measured, and patients completed a visual analog pain scale, QuickDASH, and satisfaction survey. Radiographs were assessed for implant loosening or subsidence. Results: Mean follow-up was 29 months. Mean pain score decreased from 8.0 to 0.8. Mean coronal deformity decreased from 22° ulnar deviation to 6°. Average PIPJ arc of motion improved from 51° to 56°. No lateral instability was observed. Final lateral pinch averaged 4.4 kg in affected vs 4.0 kg in opposite hand. Average final grip strength was 19 kg in affected vs 16 kg in opposite hand. Postoperative QuickDASH averaged 24; postoperative satisfaction score averaged 3.7 (5-point Likert scale). Radiographic analysis showed no implant subsidence or radiolucent lines. Conclusions: PIPJ SRA appears to be a reasonable option in border digits, as is a lateral approach on the inside border of the affected digit. Pain relief and lateral stability are predictable, and motion improves slightly. If a longitudinal incision is made, placement slightly dorsal to the midaxial line away from the digital nerve may help to avoid a tender scar.

Project description:BackgroundIn 2002 a pyrocarbon interphalangeal joint implant was granted Food and Drug Administration approval with limited evidence of effectiveness. It is important to understand device use and outcomes since this implant entered clinical practice in order to establish incremental evidence, appropriate study design and reporting. This systematic review summarised and appraised studies reporting pyrocarbon proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty.MethodsSystematic review of MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, BIOSIS, CINAHL and CENTRAL from inception to November 2020. All study designs reporting pyrocarbon proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty in humans were included. Data extracted included information about study characteristics, patient selection, regulatory (gaining research ethics approval) and governance issues (reporting of conflicting interests), operator and centre experience, technique description and outcome reporting. Descriptive and narrative summaries were reported.ResultsFrom 4316 abstracts, 210 full-text articles were screened. A total of 38 studies and 1434 (1-184) patients were included. These consisted of three case reports, 24 case series, 10 retrospective cohort studies and one randomised trial. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were stated in 25 (66%) studies. Most studies (n = 27, 71%) gained research ethics approval to be conducted. Six studies reported conflicting interests. Experience of operating surgeons was reported in nine (24%) and caseload volume in five studies. There was no consensus about the optimal surgical approach. Technical aspects of implant placement were reported frequently (n = 32) but the detail provided varied widely. Studies reported multiple, heterogenous outcomes. The most commonly reported outcome was range of motion (n = 37).ConclusionsThis systematic review identified inconsistencies in how studies describing the early use and update of an innovative procedure were reported. Incremental evidence was lacking, risking the implant being adopted without robust evaluation. This review adds to evidence highlighting the need for more rigorous evaluation of how implantable medical devices are used in practice following licencing.

Project description:BackgroundThe Self Locking Finger Joint (SLFJ) implant is a new type of surface replacement implant. The purpose of this study was to evaluate midterm clinical outcomes of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) arthroplasty with the SLFJ implant.MethodsWe retrospectively studied 26 PIP joint arthroplasties using the SLFJ implant in 17 patients with osteoarthritis or posttraumatic osteoarthritis. Preoperative and postoperative range of motion, grip strength and key pinch, radiographic findings, and complications were evaluated. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, visual analog scale (VAS) score, course of pain, and patient satisfaction were obtained.ResultsThe mean follow-up time was 44 months (range, 24-76 months). The average active PIP joint arc of motion improved from 36° before surgery to 44° after surgery. Grip strength and key pinch showed no statistical difference between preoperative and postoperative assessments. The average DASH score and VAS score improved from 40 to 15 and from 5 to 1, respectively. Overall patient satisfaction was 94%. Ninety percent of implants showed osteointegration, and there were no radiographic signs of migration and loosening. Three joints (12%) showed abnormal heterotopic bone formation. Four joints (15%) had secondary surgery-1 joint needing joint head and socket replacement and 3 joints needing contracture release.ConclusionsOur minimum 2 years of follow-up evaluation of the SLFJ implant PIP joint arthroplasty demonstrated good pain relief and good overall patient satisfaction while maintaining joint range of motion. The SLFJ implant showed good osteointegration. Further longer-term prospective studies with various types of currently available implants are needed.

Project description:BackgroundThe frequency of surgical site infection (SSI) following orthopaedic implant placement in horses has been reported but not compared with respect to specific antibiotic protocols administered.ObjectivesTo determine factors associated with SSI in horses undergoing proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) arthrodesis including perioperative antibiotic protocols.MethodsRecords were evaluated (2010-2019), and horses undergoing PIPJ arthrodesis were identified. Patient signalment, supervising surgeon, reason for surgery, limb, implants placed, anaesthetic time, duration casting/coaptation postoperatively, antibiotic regimen and incidence/onset SSI were recorded. Bayesian and frequentist logistic regressions were used to estimate the contribution of covariates to infection occurrence.ResultsFifty-four PIPJ arthrodeses were performed. SSI occurred in 2/54 (3.7%) on day 15,30. Arthrodesis was performed most commonly for osteoarthritis (33/54, 61.1%), fracture (11/54, 20.4%), and subluxation (5/54, 9.3%). Perioperative systemic antibiotics were administered 1-3 days (15/54, 27.8%) or > 3 days (39/54, 72.2%). Antibiotic protocols included cefazolin/gentamicin (20/54, 37%), cefazolin/gentamicin/doxycycline (14/54, 25.9%) and potassium penicillin/gentamicin (10/54, 18.5%). Regional limb perfusion was performed preoperatively 31/54 (57.4%) and postoperatively 7/54 (13%). Survival to dismissal was 98.1% (53/54 horses) with one horse euthanized due to support limb laminitis. No association was identified between antibiotic selection or duration (1-3 vs. > 3 days), pre-operative regional antibiotic perfusion, intraoperative antibiotic lavage or anaesthetic time (< or > 3 h) and SSI; however, modelling was complicated by quasi-complete or complete separation of the data. Bayesian analysis (but not frequentist analysis) indicated an association between post-operative regional antibiotic perfusion and SSI. Limitations include the retrospective nature of data collection and the low rate of infection overall.ConclusionsThe prevalence of SSI in this population was lower than that in previous reports of equine orthopaedic internal fixation. There was no difference in SSI rate in cases administered systemic antibiotics for 1-3 days or >3 days, or for those horses that did or did not receive preoperative regional antibiotic perfusion.

Project description:Introduction This study was designed to assess factors associated with postoperative dorsal proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint subluxation after operative treatment of volar base middle phalanx fractures. Our second purpose was to study the association between postoperative dorsal subluxation with postoperative arthritis. Materials and Methods We identified 44 surgically treated volar base PIP joint fractures with available pre- and postoperative radiographs between 2002 and 2015 at two academic medical systems with a median follow-up of 3.5 months. Demographic, injury, radiographic, and treatment data that might be associated with postoperative dorsal subluxation were collected. Three hand surgeons independently assessed subluxation and arthritis on radiographs. Bivariate analysis was performed to analyze our two study purposes. Results Six of 44 (14%) had postoperative dorsal subluxation after initial surgery. Bivariate analysis showed no factors with statistically significant association with postoperative subluxation, assessed independently by three hand surgeons on radiographs. Fifty per cent of the joints with postoperative arthritis had postoperative subluxation compared with 21% of joints without postoperative subluxation. No significant association was found between postoperative dorsal subluxation with postoperative arthritis. Conclusion The association of persistent subluxation and early arthrosis in dorsal PIP joint fracture dislocations needs further study. At this time, it is unclear in what ways persistent subluxation or arthrosis affects the rate of reoperation. Level of Evidence This is a therapeutic level IV study.

Project description:Arthrodesis of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint of the finger is an established procedure for advanced osteoarthritis. As there are different techniques of fusion, it seems necessary to evaluate the results. Primary outcome of this review was to evaluate different arthrodesis methods of the PIP joint and describe different numbers of non-unions. Secondary outcome was to evaluate time to consolidation. Respective complications, if mentioned, were listed additionally. The review process was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The selected databases were PubMed, Medline, Embase, Google Scholar and Cochrane Library. Studies reporting outcomes of the arthrodesis with a defined technique and radiological consolidation were included. Complication rates and types were recorded. In total, 6162 articles could be identified, 159 full-texts were assessed and 64 studies were included. Methodological quality was assessed using Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies. A total of 1923 arthrodeses of the PIP joint could be identified. Twelve different surgical techniques were described, four of these techniques with compression at the arthrodesis site. The most frequently used techniques were K-wires (n = 743, 14 studies), tension-band (n = 313, 15 studies) and compression screws (n = 233, 12 studies). The lowest rate of described non-unions in compression techniques was 3.9% with the compression screw. The highest non-union rate of 8.6% was achieved by interosseous wiring. All the described techniques can achieve the goal of fusing an osteoarthritic joint. There is a tendency in the more recent literature for the use of compression techniques.

Project description:To our knowledge, proximal tibiofibular joint instability has never been reported in a patient with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We present the case of a patient with anterolateral proximal tibiofibular joint instability associated with a complex primary TKA. In 2010, a male patient of 47 years was referred for TKA after posttraumatic osteoarthritis. The patient's history includes a fracture of the left lateral tibial plateau in 2008 and removal of osteosynthesis material in 2009. TKA with a lateral metal augment and intramedullary stem was performed in 2010. After TKA, instability of the left proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) was diagnosed. The patient underwent PTFJ arthrodesis and, at 5 years' follow-up, had no residual pain, with full range of motion. In this case, arthrodesis was the only possible surgical option because reconstruction surgeries require the establishment of bone tunnels in the tibia and fibula for the passage of a graft. Low bone quality and the use of an intramedullary stem with a metal augment in the tibia made any reconstruction technique unfeasible because the proximal tibia was obliterated. Although several PTFJ reconstruction techniques are available, they are difficult to apply to patients with a complex TKA.
