Abstract

Periprosthetic complications after trapeziometacarpal arthroplasty mostly require revision surgery to restore function. An unstable cup in the trapezium is typically surgically managed by trapeziectomy. This report highlights a possible alternative to maintain the implant by reconstruction of the trapezium with corticocancellous autograft.
