Proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint arthritis is a debilitating condition. The complexity of the joint makes management particularly challenging. Treatment of PIP arthritis requires an understanding of the biomechanics of the joint. PIP joint arthroplasty is one treatment option that has evolved over time. Advances in biomaterials have improved and expanded arthroplasty design. This article reviews biomechanics and arthroplasty design of the PIP joint.

Nine patients with marked destruction in both the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints of the thumb, were treated with fusion of the interphalangeal joint and insertion of the Flatt hinged metal prosthesis into the metacarpophalangeal joint. Of the nine thumbs treated in this manner, eight had good to excellent results. One prosthesis was removed after it became infected, leaving both joints fused.
