Category:Midfoot/ForefootIntroduction/Purpose:Hallux rigidus (HR) is a degenerative disease of the first metatarsalphalangeal (MTP) joint, and the most common type of foot arthritis. It affects 2.5% of population aged over 50 years. During the gait cycle, the MTP joint normally carries a force of about 119% body weight. We hypothesize that the altered gait mechanics in patients with end stage ankle arthritis would increase the stress on the MTP joint resulting in hallux rigidus. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of radiographic hallux rigidus in a population with ankle arthritis, its association with factors such as gender, age, and severity of the disease compared to the normal population.Methods:Patients from a prospectively-collected total ankle database were screened for the inclusion in the present study. All patients with ankle arthritis who underwent a primary total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) between November 2006 and November 2017 with anteroposterior and lateral views on foot ...
