About this study

None of the patients received surgery BECAUSE of the study. We have only performed motion analysis in patients, who were already scheduled for one of the described type of surgery (prospective group) or who already previously received one the type of surgery (retrospective group).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

patients with osteoarthritis of one or both first metatarso-phalangeal joints (hallux rigidus)
patients after surgery due to osteoarthritis of one or both first metatarso-phalangeal joints (hallux rigidus)

Exclusion criteria

previous operations on the foot and ankle
rheumatic diseases
relevant foot deformities other than hallux rigidus

Treatment and study plan

Motion analysis

Other

3D Motion analysis with retroflective markers on the skin (Vicon camera system) of the foot and lower leg (kinematics), walking over force plate (kinetics) and pressure plates (plantar pressure distribution).

Primary outcomes

Change of hallux range of motion

Time frame: baseline (=1 day before surgery) and 1 y. after surgery for the prospective groups, more than one year after surgery for the retrospective groups
