ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
TMT-1 arthrodesis is an established method in hallux valgus surgery, but it is technically demanding and typically calls for a period of postoperative immobilization.METHODS:
In this cohort study, initial experience with a plantar plate is described. 58 patients (59 arthrodesis) were included.RESULTS:
The mean duration of protected full weight bearing was 7 weeks. 94.12% patients were satisfied with the results, bony union was achieved in 98.31%. The Foot Function Index improved by 33 to a mean of 8 (p<.001). The postoperative Mayo Clinic Forefoot Score was excellent in 47.04 and good in 47.04%. The mean hallux valgus angle improved by 24.4-13.2° (p<.001). The mean first intermetatarsal angle improved by 11.2-5.2° (p<.001).CONCLUSION:
Initial experience with this form of fixation appears to provide suitable stability, allow early-protected weight bearing, with an acceptable level of complications.Palavras-chave
