Thumb carpometacarpal arthritis is a common condition that may result in debilitating pain and loss of acceptable hand function. If patients continue to be symptomatic after a trial of nonoperative management, many surgical options exist in the treatment of carpometacarpal arthritis. For isolated trapeziometacarpal arthritis, arthrodesis is a viable option to create a pain free, strong, and stable thumb.
拇指腕掌关节炎是一种常见病症，可能导致使人衰弱的疼痛和手部功能丧失。如果患者在经过一段时间的非手术治疗后仍有症状，那么在治疗腕掌关节炎时有多种手术选择。对于单纯的大多角骨-第一掌骨关节炎，关节融合术是一种可行的选择，可打造无痛、有力且稳定的拇指。
