Arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint.
نویسنده
چکیده
Arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is indicated in patients with symptomatic arthrodesis or advanced hallux valgus deformities that are unresponsive to nonsurgical treatment. Several fixation techniques have been described, including intefragmentary compression screws and/or dorsal plate fixation. Using these modern fixation techniques, the rate of fusion is between 94% to 98%, with high patient satisfaction. Appropriate positioning of the fusion is important for satisfactory outcome.

متن کاملEvaluation of the Intermetatarsal Angle after the Arthrodesis of the First Metatarsophalangeal Joint for Treatment of the Hallux Valgus
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correction of the intermetatarsal angle after arthrodesis of the metatarsophalangeal joint of the hallux. We believe that varus deformity of the first metatarsal can be corrected after arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint, without the need for proximal osteotomy. METHODS Forty-three feet of patients who had undergone arthrodesis of the first metatarsoph...

Eighty-seven feet have been reviewed after arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint stabilised by chromic catgut. Radiological union was present in 90% of patients at the mean review time of six years. Twenty-four patients had significant metatarsalgia before operation and only two failed to improve afterwards. Excellent or good subjective results were reported in 94% of patients at r...
