Items related to Arthritis of the Base of the Thumb
This book provides comprehensive coverage of the first ray afflictions which affect 30% of all women by the age of 50. Anatomical, radiological, biochemical, and therapeutic aspects of these arthroses are discussed by internationally renowned specialists in their fields in separate chapters. Surgical treatments are also assessed, the descriptions of long-term results and the comparisons of different techniques providing readers with a clear idea of the current status of the problems. These arthroses have long been either neglected or treated by medical means, but the newer surgical treatments are now described here which maintain mobility of the thumb and the ray's essential function of first opposition while abolishing the pain which is the presenting complaint.
