Long term outcomes of the MAIA trapezio-metacarpal joint prosthesis (groupe Lépine) are now available in the J Hand Surgery Am. (25 june 2024), with more than 13 years of follow up. ✅ 92 MAIA implants in 76 patients ✅ Quick DASH score significantly improved from 61,3 to 19,6 ✅ Key pinch and grip strength significantly improved by 26% and 39% respectively ✅ Range of motion and Kapandji opposition score restored postoperatively ✅ Z-deformity corrected in most cases ❗ 8 implants surgically revised, 6 for trapezium cup loosening and 2 for instability because of polyethylene wear 📉 Survival rate over 13 years is 88% vs 93% over 6 years 📊 We had previously presented the mid-term results of this series of patients in the J Hand Surg Am in 2017 with more than 6 years of follow up. Interesting to note that clinical results are maintained over time 💹. 🙏 Special thanks to my collegues for this publication, Dr. Benjamin Degeorge, Dr. Yannick CLOQUELL, Dr. Philippe Teissier, Dr. J.
