Q

Thumb amputation classification

A

Lister
1. Good length, function, poor soft tissue
2. Subtotal - questionable length - patient requirements decide and level of amputation, maybe only soft tissue coverage
3. Total amp, preserved basal joint - lenghten
4. No basal joint - new basal joint of fused in antiposition

Q

Common finger joints affected in RA and Psoriasis arthritis

Q

How Boutonniere in thumb developes in RA

A

Proliferative MPj synovitis bulges dorsally
->attenuation of EPB insertion, streching ext hood-> Displacement of EPL ulnarly/volarly

Check that no FPL rupture in carpal tunnel

Possible to reconstruct ext with rerouting of EPL dorsally + synovecotmi in early cases but risk of recurrence

Treatment

A

Treatmen focus on CMC1 with LRTI, If flexible MCP volar tenodesis or sesamoidesis. If fixed -> MP fusion.

Q

In Vaughn-Jackson what happens?

A

Destructive synovitis destroys ulno and radiocarpal lig. Ulna stays in place but the carpus supinates oand translates volarly (also volarly from radius due to volar inclination in radius). The radius also moves a little volarly in relation to ulna.

Ulna is actually the only bone in place in opposition to what we normally say.

How to treat ulnar drift in MCPj in RA

Q

Intrinsic tighthenss test

A

by Richardo Finochietto from Argentina and redefiened by Bunell)

  1. Extend MCPj and measure degree of PIP-flexion
  2. Flex MCP - should increase PIP-flexion in instrinsic tightness. If force to flex PIP increases indicates extrinsic tightness
