Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this project is to investigate the subjective and clinical outcome in patients at least one year after DIP arthroplasty and compare them to matched patients with an arthrodesis.

The primary endpoint is the satisfaction with the treatment result of in the motion-preserving DIP surgery at follow-up.
