摘要

A 61-year-old man sustained a chronic volar dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb. He did not present for treatment until he experienced recently progressive joint pain 2 years after injury. Arthrodesis of the metacarpophalangeal joint was performed to correct the deformity of the thumb because of its extensive tissue scarring and erosion of the articular cartilage of the metacarpal head. Six weeks of splint immobilization followed by a physiotherapy program allowed the patient to resume his daily activities with his right hand.
