Sažetak
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the second-most common musculoskeletal disorder, leading to pain and functional limitations with a high social and economic burden (Cross et al., 2014). OA can affect every joint in the body, but it is most common in the knee, hip, spine, and hand (Pereira, 2011). Within the hand, the thumb base is the most affected joint. In the general population, radiographic thumb base OA is more prevalent in females, is strongly associated with age, and can increase to almost 40% (Van der Oest, 2021a).
