Methods: Patients treated between January 2011 and January 2019 were evaluated retrospectively. Quick-DASH scores were calculated before surgery and after follow-up. Union status on direct graphy, the presence of scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joint arthritis at the end of follow-up and the development of compensatory hyperextension of the metocarpophalangeal joint were investigated. Hand grip strengths at the end of follow-up was measured. Results: A total of 21 joints with arthrodesis in 19 patients were included in the study. Mean age was 56.6(52-72) years. Mean follow-up period was 57.7(17-90) months. In all patients, there was statistically significant improvement in the end of follow-up Quick-DASH score when compared with the presurgical score (p=0.001). Direct graphy at the end of follow-up revealed that there was non-union after arthrodesis in nine joints of eight patients (42.8%). In one patient without fusion following arthrodesis, revision surgery was performed (4.7%). There was no significant difference between the end of fol - low-up Quick-DASH scores of patients with and without union(p=0.84). The difference in hand grip strength in patients with fusion and non-union wasn’t statistically significant (p=0.214). Conclusion: In our study, it was observed that k-wire arthrodesis of the first CMC joint was associated with high nonunion rates, but nonunion did not have an unfavourable effect on functional results.We believe that studies with large series are needed for a more precise result.","PeriodicalId":31023,"journal":{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76710121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nay, Kadir Tatlısu","doi":"10.5455/handmicrosurg.72804","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5455/handmicrosurg.72804","url":null,"abstract":"Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the mid-term results of subdermal pocket replantation without vessel repair on fingertip amputation cases with bone fragments. Methods: In 2018-2019, nine patients’ eleven fingers whose fingertip amputation could not be repaired and be aplied sub dermal pocketing were included in the study. Satisfaction level, range of motion, length and survival rate, two-point static discrimination and Semmes Weinstein monofilament test were applied. Results: All of the patients included in the study were male and the mean age was 35.2 ± 13.5 years. The mean time be tween insertion and removal of the finger in the pocket is 16.45 ± 2.42 (14-21) days. The median of SMWT was 2.83 (2.83 – 6.65) and the mean of S2PD was 3.62 ± 0.38 (2.00 – 6.00) mm. The mean score of satisfaction was 65.9 ± 27.9 (0 – 100) out of hundred. Three patients’ three fingers survived and this patients were named as group A, and the other 6 patients (8 fingers) were named as group B. The average survival rate of three patients was 71.7 ± 33.2%. There was no statistically significant difference between groups in terms of age, waiting time in the pocket, SWMT, S2PD and satisfaction scores. Conclusions: Although pocket replantation method is an easy method to apply, it does not show perfect results in cases with bone fragments. It seems to be a viable method for providing venous drainage in fingertip amputations where artery repair can be performed but vein repair cannot be performed.","PeriodicalId":31023,"journal":{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88310003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
