AB Trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis (TMCOA) is a highly prevalent disease in the olderpopulation. Many different types of surgical treatments are possible, depending on the degree ofjoint involvement, the personal and professional circumstances of the patient and the preferencesof the orthopedic surgeon. This paper evaluated the clinical and radiological results of consecutivecohorts of patients over 65 years old treated with total joint arthroplasties (TJA) of the ball and sockettype (B&S) for TMCOA, with a minimum of 10 years follow-up. The survival rate (Kaplan–Meier) ofthe functional prostheses at 10 years was 92.2% (95% CI (89.1%, 96.1%). These functional arthroplastypatients, after 10 years of follow-up, showed little or no pain, good function and good key pinch,without radiological alterations. TJAs of the B&S type are a long lasting, effective and reliablealternative to surgical treatment of TMCOA in patients over 65 years of age, when they are performedwith the patient selection criteria and surgical technique described throughout this study.
