Arthroplasty of the fingers

An experienced clinician will explain the probable cause of your problem to you.

Crooked fingers (rhumatoid arthritis, swan neck, buttonhole) are stabilized with tendon anchors (articular tenodesis and pinning), with joint fusion (interphalangeal arthrodesis) or with a small artificial silicone joint (Swanson metacarpophalangeal arthroplasty).
