“…However, many other studies found no correlation between sex and presence of sesamoid bones. [1,[9][10][11][12] In the current study, we found no significant correlation between sex and the presence of sesamoid bone (p>0.970 for MCP II and p=0.176 for MCP V). However, the presence of sesamoid bone at MCP II was statistically significantly correlated with the presence of sesamoid bone at MCP V (p<0.001).…”

“…The prevalence of sesamoid bone at MCP III range from 0.8 to 5.3%. [4,5,8,9,11] In previous studies from Turkey, Civan et al [6] and Kose et al [7] reported the prevalence as 1.1% and 1.3%, respectively. We found a similar prevalence of 1.3% in our series.…”

“…The presence of at least one sesamoid at the MCP I in different ethnicities has been reported by many authors. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] In a meta-analysis, Yammine [1] reported a prevalence of sesamoid bone on radial, ulnar and both side of MCP I of 99.93%, 99.81%, and 99.93%, respectively. [1] This slight difference may be caused by physiological agenesis of one sesamoid bone in some subjects, as three patients having one sesamoid bone in our study.…”

Objectives: This study aims to investigate the prevalence and location of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) sesamoid bones using computed tomography (CT) images. Patients and methods: A total of 767 hands of 735 patients (503 males, 232 females; mean age: 36.9±17.0 years; range, 18 to 105 years) obtained from picture archiving and communication system were retrospectively analyzed between January 2016 and December 2019. The sesamoid bones of MCP joints I, II, III, IV, and V were recorded. Data including age, sex, side, number, pathologies, and location of the sesamoid bones were recorded. Results: The prevalence of sesamoid bones was found to be 100%, 37.61%, 1.17%, 0.5%, and 80% in MCP I, II, III, IV, and V, respectively. There was no significant correlation between the sex of the patient and presence of sesamoid bone at MCP II or MCP V (p>0.970 and p=0.176, respectively). The presence of sesamoid bone at MCP II was statistically significantly correlated with the presence of sesamoid bone at MCP V (p<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in the side and sesamoid prevalence in the remaining 703 patients (p>0.05). Conclusion: The prevalence of MCP V sesamoid bone is higher than previous studies from our country. The CT of hand can be used to determine sesamoid fractures and degenerative conditions of sesamoids.

“…Sbs can be found in all the fingers, but it is most common in the MCP joint of the thumb. The current study aimed to determine the presence of Sbs ossification at the thumb MCP joint of the hand, which has been confirmed in almost all individuals (98.2%-100%) by several studies 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , separately for girls and boys, and its relationship with puberty period.…”

Objective: The current study aimed to determine the onset of sesamoid bones (Sbs) ossification at the thumb metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint of the hand and its relationship with puberty. Methods: This retrospective radiographic study included patients aged 5-17 years. The presence of Sbs was investigated separately for each age group. Patients were classified based on their age, gender, and the presence of radial and ulnar sesamoids. Results: A total of 1,020 radiographs from 939 patients were analyzed. Sbs began to ossify in girls at the age of 8 years and in boys at the age of 9 years. The ulnar-radial sesamoids were present in all individuals in the same age group at the age of 13-14 years in girls and 15 years in boys. The age at which 50% of the individuals in the same age group had a sesamoid was 10.4 years in girls and 11.9 years in boys on the radial side, 9.5 years in girls, and 11.5 years in boys on the ulnar side. Conclusions: In all individuals, the time between the onset of sesamoids of the MCP joint and development corresponds to the physiological period of puberty. However, the age at which puberty begins coincides with the time when Sbs begin to ossify in 50% of both sexes in the same age group.

“…In the literature, studies on the coincidence of sesamoid bones of the hand and the resulting distribution patterns are very scarce (Joseph, 1951;Ting et al;Al Khabori et al, 2021) and only one study has been conducted with the Turkish population (Kose et al). The present study showed that sesamoid bones of the hand exhibited 12 different distribution patterns.…”

The aim of this study is to identify the prevalence and distribution patterns of sesamoid bones at the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and interphalangeal (IP) joints and to determine if there is an association between the distribution patterns and age, gender, and hand side. Patients who had a direct radiograph of the hand obtained between 2019-2020 were retrospectively evaluated. All radiographs were evaluated in terms of the prevalence, coincidence, and distribution patterns of sesamoid bones. Presence of an association between distribution patterns and age, sex and side was also assessed. A total of 1501 hand radiographs were included into the study. There were 12 different patterns of sesamoid bone distribution. The most common distribution pattern was the presence of sesamoid bone at the first MCP joint only (25.8 %). There was a positive correlation between the second and third MCP, second and fifth MCP, second and first IP, third and fourth MCP and fifth MCP and first IP joints. The pattern with a sesamoid bone at the first MCP joint only was more prevalent among males, whereas the pattern involving coincidence of sesamoid bones at the first, second, fifth MCP and first IP joints was more prevalent among females (p<0.001, p=0.031). A positive correlation was observed between age and the number of MCP joints with sesamoid bones (p<0.001). The number of MCP joints with sesamoid bones was found to be higher in females (p<0.001).This study is important in that it provided anatomical data that can be guiding for clinicians in terms of diagnosis and management of hand disorders.
