The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the treatment of Hallux Valgus using the conventional method (metal screw) with the new method (human allogeneic cortical bone screw (Shark Screw®) in adult patients with confirmed Hallux Valgus. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the new method obtain comparable results as the conventional method in regard to union rate and time to union? Are the number of complications lower with the new method? Participants will be operated either with the metal screw or with the Shark Screw®. The assignment to the groups is randomized.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the relationship between Hallux Abductus Valgus (HAV) and the hyperextension of the Extensor Hallucis Longus (EHL) tendon. The study aims to understand the efficacy of MIS surgery in treating foot deformities like HAV and to evaluate the impact of EHL tendon hyperextension on this condition. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - How does the hyperextension of the EHL tendon correlate with the presence and severity of HAV? - What is the effectiveness of MIS surgery in correcting HAV deformities and addressing issues related to EHL tendon hyperextension? Participants in this study will undergo pre-surgical evaluation to assess the severity of HAV and measure the extent of EHL tendon hyperextension using pressure platform analysis and other relevant clinical measures. During the MIS surgery, participants will receive treatment targeted at correcting HAV, possibly involving partial tenotomy. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare individuals who undergo MIS surgery for HAV correction with a control group not receiving this intervention. The comparison aims to assess the effects of MIS surgery on both HAV correction and the relationship between EHL tendon hyperextension and the deformity. This study endeavors to shed light on the relationship between HAV and EHL tendon hyperextension, the effectiveness of MIS surgery in addressing these issues, and potentially pave the way for improved surgical techniques in treating foot pathologies.
Peripheral nerve blocks are essential in ensuring effective regional anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in forefoot surgery for hallux valgus repair. Many factors influence the onset and duration of peripheral nerve blocks. In the advent of ultrasound-guided nerve blocks, the accuracy in administering LA has significantly improved, potentially reducing the required dosage, which is also associated with less risk for toxicity. However, the effect of the concentration of LA on the onset time and duration of ultrasound-guided ankle blocks for forefoot surgery has not yet been studied. This poses a clinically relevant dilemma regarding the necessity of administering lower or higher concentrations of ropivacaine to achieve a clinically relevant faster onset time and longer duration of an ankle block.
Hallux valgus (HV) is a tri-planar, painful and common foot deformity characterized by the medial orientation of the first metatarsal, lateral deviation and pronation of the big toe at the level of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Due to the increase in the severity of hallux valgus deformity, dissatisfaction with the appearance of the foot, difficulty choosing shoes due to bunions and pain, difficulty walking and accordingly, restriction in daily activities, the functional levels and health-related quality of life of individuals are negatively affected. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of using a toe separator orthosis and dynamic orthosis for 1 month on hallux valgus angle and plantar pressure in individuals with hallux valgus.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate operative treatment versus conservative treatment in participants suffering from mild to moderate hallux valgus deformity. The main question it aims to answer are; Is surgery superior to conservative treatment? The participants will be randomized in to two groups, operative and conservative group. Investigators will compare the groups measuring the clinical results using the patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOxFQ), Visual analog scale (VAS), likert scale 0-5. Participants will be observed for a period og two years.
This study is a clinical trial.Hallux valgus, one of the common deformities in the foot in children with diplegic Cerebral Palsy, has caused serious problems in daily life activities in children and has usually resulted in surgical operation. Due to the lack of sufficient studies on this topic, our aim in our study is to show the importance of exercise and mobilization applied by physiotherapists in the early stages of hallux valgus deformity, which is common in children with Cerebral palsy, in correcting the deformity, and an example exercise program for physiotherapists. The study will include 15 individuals with cerebral palsy diagnosed with hallux valgus by a physician at the Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation clinic at Istanbul FSM Madenler Medical Center according to the following criteria. Children diagnosed with diplegic SP, aged 9-16, with Communication Function Classification System Levels 1 and 2, ambulation level GMFCS 1-2, using AF Dec and GRAPHO and without any auxiliary device use, Manchester scale stages 1 and 2 will be included. Those who cannot walk independently, GMSCS 3 and above, children using assistive devices, Communication Function Classification System Level 3 and above, children with Manchester scale Stage 3 hallux valgus will be excluded from the study.Manchester November Scale for Hallux valgus classification, Hallux valgus angle and Foot and Ankle joint range of motion goniometer, Spasticity Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Foot and Ankle muscle strength Kendall Manual Muscle Strength Assessment, Pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Communication skill Communication Function Classification System with Gross Motor Function Classification System GMFCS level, American orthopedic foot-ankle association-hallux MTF-IF scale evaluation is planned.
Forty Hallux valgus patients between the ages of 25-65 years, who are admitted to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic with the complaint of 1st Metatarsophalangeal (MTF) pain and who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included. Hallux valgus (HV) angles will be measured by dorsoplantar radiography before the patients start the study. The HV angle was measured as the angle between the bisection line of the first metatarsal bone and the first proximal phalanx. Demographic data (age, gender, body mass index) will be recorded at the beginning of the study. Then, the initial Foot Functional Index (FFI) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scales were completed. The 1st MTF joint angle was also measured with a goniometer and recorded before starting the study. The patients were divided into two groups. The first group will be given 3 sessions of dry needling with Seirin branded 0.6*50 mm acupuncture needles for trigger point in the abductor hallucis muscle and toe-spread-out exercise. The second group will receive only toe-spread-out exercises. After starting the treatment, FFI and VAS scores and 1st MTF angles will be measured and recorded weekly with a goniometer. At the end of the 3-week treatment, the FFI and VAS scores of the participants will be re-evaluated after 1 week and 1 month, and the participants will be re-evaluated with a goniometer. The hallux valgus angle will be re-evaluated with X-ray 4 weeks after the end of the treatment.
This is a pilot study with a randomized controlled design.
We will screen all first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodeses performed between 2010 and 2022 in Helsinki University Hospital. Information about demographics and additional diagnoses will be yielded from data pool of medical records. Additionally we review pre- and post-operative x-rays for first MTP joint angles and OR records for operative techniques. Our aim is to find associations between those known variables and risk for reoperation in two years after operation.
