Thumb arthritis surgery showdown: old vs. new technique
NCT ID NCT05753891
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two surgical treatments for thumb arthritis at the base of the thumb. The standard surgery removes a small bone and fills the space with a tendon graft. The newer method uses a special tape to hold the thumb bone in place. The study was stopped early and included 28 adults whose thumb pain did not improve with other treatments.
