Relief of pain was achieved in all but three patients, whose cases were considered as failures. Joint motion improved by an average of 20 degrees, and it was in an acceptable range in twenty-three p...

متن کاملHallux Rigidus: A Treatment Algorithm
First metatarsophalangeal joint osteoarthritis, commonly known as hallux rigidus, is a progressive disabling condition. Several staging classification systems exist. We present a staging system incorporating radiographic findings, range of motion, and presence or absence of mid-motion pain and sesamoid pain. On the basis of these clinically significant variables, we present an algorithm for tre...

متن کاملThe pathogenesis of hallux rigidus.
The clinical, radiological and pathological features of hallux rigidus affecting nine toes (in seven patients) are described. Characteristic chondral and osteochondral lesions are seen to occur at a specific site on the metatarsal head, and account for the limitation of dorsiflexion but relatively unrestricted plantarflexion typical of hallux rigidus. Radiologically these lesions are often miss...
