Interposition arthroplasty with bovine collagenous membrane for hallux rigidus: A long-term results retrospective study.
Abstract
Hallux rigidus (HR) is a degenerative arthritis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP1) with progressive loss of range of movement (ROM). Interposition arthroplasty (IA) is a technique widely used for the treatment of HR;however, few studies reported long-term clinical results. This study aims to report the clinical results of IA using a bovine pericardium collagen matrix for HR with a minimum 10-years follow-up.
