Prospective Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Intraarticular Administration of Micro-grafts of Adipose Tissue (Adipo-micro-grafts) in the Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Trapezium-metacarpal Joint (ADIPO_MICRO_GRAFTS_1)

Plain-language summary
The objective of this interventional study is the Change in the Michigan Hand Questionnaire (MHQ) score over time in subjects with Eaton Littler grade II and III trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis.
The main questions to be answered are:
* primary outcomes: Differences in the change in the MHQ scale measured as a reduction in the score result of 12 points within 6 months from preoperative.
* secondary outcomes: Change from baseline in hand function measured by grip strength (Gripstrength); Change from baseline in hand function by lateral grip strength (tippinch and tripodpinch); Change in the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scale before the procedure then after the procedure, at 1, 3 and 6 months; Safety and tolerance of the treatments.

What they're measuring
1
Change in hand and upper limb function measured by the Michigan Hand questionnaire
Timeframe: The MHQ will be administered at three key time points: before treatment, 3 months, and 6 months after the therapeutic intervention, in order to monitor clinical progress and treatment effectiveness.
β. Intra-articular injection within 3 months of treatment.
β. Immunocompromised for reasons such as corticosteroid therapy, chemotherapy, antiangiogenic or immunosuppressive agents, or due to immunodeficiency syndromes
β. Previous hand surgery within the last 6 months
β. History of connective tissue disease, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, SjΓΆgren's syndrome or mixed connective tissue disease
β. Infections in the trapezium-metacarpal joint, skin disease or infections in the area of the injection site
