A member asked:
Can adult ra cause radial deviation in the fingers ? what else can cause this in adults?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: Radial deviation is unusual in most of the arhritides-ulnar deviation is more common, but another cause of metacarpophalangeal arthritis is calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease and hemochromatosis. A Rheumatologist or an Orthopedic Surgeon could advise in a specific case and do the appropriate tests.
