Thumb CMCJ prosthetic total joint replacement: a systematic review

Thumb carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) arthritis is a common and painful condition. Thumb CMCJ prosthetic replacement aims to restore thumb biomechanics and improve pain and function. Early reviews demonstrated a lack of high-quality studies, but more recently a significant number of higher-quality studies have been published. This review provides a concise and systematic overview of the evidence to date. A systematic review of several databases was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. Studies evaluating the outcomes of thumb CMCJ prosthetic total joint replacement were included. Data extracted included patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), pain scores, range of motion, strength, survival rates and complications. A total of 56 studies met all inclusion criteria and were analysed. There was one randomized controlled trial, three prospective comparative cohort studies, five retrospective comparative cohort studies, and 47 descriptive cohort studies. The reported studies included 2731 patients with 3048 thumb total CMCJ prosthetic joint replacements. Follow up ranged from 12 months to 13.1 years. In general, good results were demonstrated, with improvements in PROMs, pain scores and strength. Failure rates ranged from 2.6% to 19.9% depending upon implant studied. Comparative studies demonstrated promising results for replacement when compared to resection arthroplasty, with modest improvements in PROMs but at a cost of increased rates of complications. Studies reporting outcomes in thumb CMCJ prosthetic total joint replacement are increasing in both number and quality. Failure, in terms of loosening and dislocation, remains a concern, although in the medium-term follow up for modern implants this issue appears to be lower when compared to their predecessors. Functional outcomes also look promising compared to resection arthroplasty, but further high-quality studies utilizing a standardized resection arthroplasty technique and modern implants, together with standardized core outcome sets, will be of value.

“…Thus, embarking on a randomized controlled study comparing trapeziectomy with any TMC total arthroplasty, particularly a new one, carries the risk of becoming irrelevant. This is as the joint replacement, however well it performs in the short-term, may be found to have an unacceptably high revision rate (Craik et al., 2017; Froschauer et al., 2020; Kollig et al., 2017) such that it is withdrawn from the market. Some implants appears to survive better than others (Aebischer et al., 2016), but only when a total joint replacement is shown to have acceptably low long-term failure rates (ideally at 10 years) when inserted by the majority of hand surgeons, will the time be right for such a comparative trial.…”

Trapeziometacarpal joint arthritis: a personal approach to its treatment

Many hand surgeons have fixed beliefs on how trapeziometcarapl (TMC) osteoarthritis should be treated. However, not all hand surgeons share the same fixed beliefs, so different factions of hand surgeons can hold contradictory beliefs. Many retain their fixed beliefs, rather than reconsidering them, when the best available evidence challenges them. The problem causing this heterogeneity of fixed beliefs is the lack of high-quality evidence that can withstand critical appraisal and cannot be ignored or simply dismissed by those with rigid contradictory beliefs. This article examines some of the dogmas surrounding the treatment of TMC osteoarthritis.

“…In the six published prospective studies comparing resection arthroplasty and trapeziectomy with ligamentoplasty, there have been comparisons with the Arpe (Craik et al., 2017; Robles-Molina et al., 2017), de la Caffinière (De Smet et al., 2013), the Electra (Ulrich-Vinter et al., 2008), the Maia (Degeorge et al., 2018) and the Ivory prostheses (Cebrian-Gomez et al., 2019). The mean functional outcomes scores, VAS and pinch grip were better, and pain relief was faster with total joint prostheses than with trapeziectomy and ligamentoplasty, but the numbers are small and the authors compare different implants.…”

Functional outcomes after surgery for thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis

There are a number of possible assessments of functional outcomes for thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis. The most important and easiest to measure is pain, but it is not the only material outcome. Functional scores for measuring the outcome of the treatment of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis have been recommended for some time, but are still not widely used even in published studies. It is also unclear which functional scores are the most valuable. Easily used scores, such as the Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, are freely available, but may not be sensitive enough to assess outcomes especially of thumb carpometacarpal joint arthroplasty. The optimal functional outcome measurement would be weighted for the individual patient. A minimum dataset needs to be defined in order to compare studies and derive meaningful data.
