[Metacarpophalangeal luxation of the thumb. Apropos of 30 cases].
A retrospective study of a series of 30 cases of metacarpo-phalangeal luxation of thumb (18 dorsal and 12 palmar) showed the relatively high frequency of the palmar variety both in adults and children. Prognosis was better for dorsal than for palmar luxations, the latter being associated with other lesions; cutaneous, tendinous and/or bony, these constituting the severity factor.
