Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Podiatry
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Hallux rigidus is a degenerative arthritis affecting the first metatarsophalangeal joint.
  • Pain and impingement are primary symptoms, often caused by dorsal osteophytes.
  • Current treatments aim to relieve symptoms and improve joint function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of cheilectomy in treating hallux rigidus.
  • To assess the benefits of a minimally invasive approach for osteophyte removal.
  • To document symptom relief and recovery time associated with the procedure.

Main Methods:

  • Cheilectomy procedure involving the removal of dorsal, dorsomedial, or dorsolateral osteophytes.
  • Minimally invasive surgical technique.
