Long-term follow-up of metacarpal phalangeal arthroplasty with silicone Dacron prostheses.

Sixteen patients who had eighty-nine metacarpal phalangeal arthroplasties with silicone Dacron prostheses (Niebauer type), were followed for an average of 11 1/2 years. Evaluation for palmar subluxation, ulnar drift, range of motion (ROM), pain relief, and stability showed it was satisfactory for relief of pain and correction of ulnar drift but it was eventually poor for range of motion and stability. If the arthritis was not controlled, the function of the hand decreased progressively, in spite of prosthetic replacements of the joints.

The treatment of Dupuytren's contracture with flexor tendon sheath involvement-the sliding volar flap.

When the flexor tendon sheath must be opened to release a Dupuytren's contracture of the finger, one is sometimes left with an exposed flexor tendon. If the initial incisions in the finger are made to create a proximally based flap, adequate skin is left to cover the defect in the flexor tendon sheath and a split-thickness skin graft can be placed distally where the sheath has not been violated.

Detecting occult fractures of the metacarpal head: the Brewerton view.

A tangential view of the metacarpal heads which previously was described as being useful for diagnosis of arthritic changes also can be a valuable aid in detecting fractures or avulsions of ligamentous insertions in this area of the hand. The technique of Brewerton is described and illustrative cases are reported.
