Abstract
The management of complications after surgery for basal thumb arthritis is sometimes challenging, and there are no clear recommendations on how to evaluate and manage patients with residual symptoms. The aim of the present article was to review the most common complications after surgery for basal thumb arthritis, with an emphasis on resection arthroplasty, joint replacement and joint fusion. In addition, possible management strategies for the different types of complications will be highlighted.
