AYALA-GAMBOA, U e DOMINGUEZ-CHACON, ND. Joint surface resection with a minimally invasive dorsal approach for arthrodesis of the distal interphalangeal joint. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.5, pp.251-253. ISSN 2306-4102.
Degenerative joint disease of the distal interphalangeal joint of the fingers precedes its occurrence in all the remaining regions of the body and produces major disability. We describe a distal interphalangeal arthrodesis technique performed with minimally invasive surgery. Case etiology was varied and mean follow-up was 10 months. All cases healed and functional recovery started at postoperative week two. This is a reproducible technique that produces satisfactory results in the short and medium term.
