Background. Trapeziectomy and ligament reconstruction is favoured by surgeons concerned that telescoping of the thumb may reduce its function. However, theoretically ligamentoplasties are at risk to develop tendinosis or tendon rupture or a complex regional pain syndrome type 1. Hypothesis of the article. Authors tested the looping of a slip from the Abductor Pollicis Longus tendon around the first intermetacarpal ligament, aiming at a surgical treatment which does not require bone tunneling or looping around a tendon. Our results support the hypothesis that this new technique is a valid addition among treatments for carpo-metacarpal arthritis. Materials and Methods. Forty-two patients were followed-up to one year. Each patient had subjec...
