Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
A minimum of 100 patients with grade III hallux rigidus will be randomized in two parallel groups for surgical care. The first group will be submitted to the insertion of a synthetic cartilage implant at the metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint. The second group will receive a dermal interposition arthroplasty at the MTP. Both sides will undergo the same post-operative protocol. Pain, complications, and functional results will be evaluated in a minimal of two years of follow-up.
