Abstract

Osteoarthritis of the first column relates to the trapeziometacarpal and the trapezium-trapezoid-hull acme (STT). The two neighbouring joints work together. This relation can modify, in a consistent way, the surgical decision. Therefore, we divided into two parts the treatment of the two diseases, but we presented some of the contact points between them, both in the surgical technique and in the context of the disease itself.
