The authors report a case of trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis in a 58-year-old
woman with low functional demand. The patient had a proximal row carpectomy for
posttraumatic radiocarpal arthritis. The authors decided to perform arthroplasty
using a total GUEPAR trapeziometacarpal prosthesis to conserve carpal stability
of the first column. Eight years after the surgery, the patient is free of pain
and her thumb movement is similar to the opposite thumb.
No radiographic changes
were observed. No similar cases have been reported in the literature. Prosthesis
insertion could be a reasonable option for this indication to give long-term
painless mobility and stability.
