Abstract
The introduction of third-generation thumb carpometacarpal joint implants with a dual-mobility concept has significantly redefined the treatment algorithm for advanced thumb carpometacarpal joint osteoarthritis. Prosthetic arthroplasty is increasingly being adopted as the primary treatment choice in many clinical centres. The boundaries of prosthetic arthroplasty are being newly defined. These aspects were addressed and discussed with a broad audience during the first web symposium of the German-speaking Working Group for Hand Surgery (DAH) on 29 November 2023. This article provides an overview of the stage-dependent treatment concept of thumb carpometacarpal joint osteoarthritis and summarizes the insights of the web symposium.
