Split distal flexor pollicis longus tenodesis: long-term results.

A thumb lacking intrinsic muscle function but having extrinsic flexion will hyperflex in the interphalangeal joint giving a positive Froment's sign. This can effectively be prevented with split flexor pollicis longus tenodesis. The mean postoperative range of motion in the IP joint of 39 hands was 28 (18) degrees and 23 (20) degrees six and 12 months postoperatively. The procedure makes arthrodesis (temporary or permanent) superfluous. This procedure can be recommended strongly.

A 3-D dynamic model of human finger for studying free movements.

The purpose of this work is to develop a 3D inverse dynamic model of the human finger for estimating the muscular forces involved during free finger movements. A review of the existing 3D models of the fingers is presented, and an alternative one is proposed. The validity of the model has been proved by means of two simulations: free flexion-extension motion of all joints, and free metacarpophalangeal (MCP) adduction motion. The simulation shows the need for a dynamic model including inertial effects when studying fast movements and the relevance of modelling passive forces generated by the structures studying free movements, such as the force exerted by the muscles when they are stretched and the passive action of the ligaments over the MCP joint in order to reproduce the muscular force pattern during the simulation of the free MCP abduction-adduction movements.
