Interpositional Arthroplasty of the First Metatarsophalangeal Joint with Bioresorbable Pldla Implant in the Treatment of Hallux Rigidus and Arthritic Hallux Valgus: A 9-Year Case Series Follow-Up

Abstract: Background and Aims: The interpositional arthroplasty was developed to retain foot function and to relieve pain due to the arthritis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. The bioabsorbable poly-L-D-lactic acid RegJoint® interpositional implant provides temporary support to the joint, and the implant is subsequently replaced by the patient’s own tissue. In this study, we retrospectively examined the results of the poly-L-D-lactic acid interpositional arthroplasty in a 9-year follow-up study among patients wit… Show more

“…In comparison to other long-term studies, the number of cases presented here are higher and the follow-up is strict and simple [14]. The AOFAS and SEFAS scales are an effortless form of control for the patients and present clear results in the postoperative period.…”

“…This may lead to digit shortening and deformity. Commercially available prostheses for the small bones are commonly used in degenerative diseases such as hallux valgus or osteoarthritis of the metacarpophalangeal joints [18,19,24]. These prostheses reconstruct the articular surface, but they were not designed to replace the whole tubular bone.…”

“…Interpositional arthroplasty, which uses a biologic as a spacer in the MTP joint, was developed in response to these limitations. In prior studies, interpositional arthroplasty of the MTP joint has been performed with Silastic material, regenerative tissue matrix, and bioresorbable implants, as well as autograft transfer from the medial and plantar aspect of the ipsilateral talar head [8][9][10][11][12]. Since interpositional arthroplasty is designed to preserve more bone and joint motion, thereby improving function, it has great potential to improve outcomes in active patients [13].…”
