“…Senga et al believed that HV is a risk factor for HR (hallux rigidus). Although HV is one of the biological factors of HR, some researchers believe that current research has failed to provide a clear link ( 52 ). More pathophysiological studies of the relationship between HV and HR may be available in the future.…”

BackgroundHallux valgus (HV) is a common foot and ankle surgery disease. The correction of HV deformity relies on a highly challenging surgical treatment. Thus, widely adopted evidence-based clinical guidelines are still needed to guide the selection of the most appropriate interventions. Recently, the study of HV has been growing and scholars are increasingly paying particular attention to this area. However, bibliometric literature remains lacking. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the hotspots and future research trends in HV via bibliometric analysis to fill this knowledge gap.MethodsLiterature related to HV from 2004 to 2021 was retrieved from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-expanded) of the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). Quantitative and qualitative analyses of scientific data are performed using software such as CiteSpace, R-bibliometrix, and VOSviewer.ResultsA total of 1,904 records were identified for analysis. The United States had the most number of published articles and total citations. Thus, the United States has made an essential contribution to the field of HV. Meanwhile, La Trobe University in Australia was the most productive institution. Menz HB and Foot & Ankle International were the most influential authors and the most popular journals among researchers, respectively. In addition, “older people,” “chevron osteotomy,” “Lapidus,” and “hallux rigidus” have always been the hotspots of attention. Changes and developments in the surgery of HV have gained researchers' interest. Future research trends are more focused on “radiographic measurement,” “recurrence,” “outcome,” “rotation,” “pronation,” and “minimally invasive surgery.” Thus, focusing on these subject directions can facilitate academic progress and provide the possibility of better treatments for HV.ConclusionThis study summarizes the hotspots and trends in the field of HV from 2004 to 2021, which will provide researchers with an updated view of essential information and somehow guide future research.

“…The causes of this pathology are not clear. However, the most common presentation is primary, idiopathic, or secondary, produced by damage to the articular cartilage due to direct trauma of short/long duration or systemic disease as the most probable causes (11) .…”

Therapeutic option for patients with severe hallux rigidus

Objective: Subclassify grade III of Hattrup and Johnson classification into two groups, according to the remaining percentage of plantar articular cartilage, and propose a treatment option other than arthrodesis for some of these patients. Methods: Twenty-one patients with grade III hallux rigidus were operated on between February 2015 and January 2020. The radiographic Hattrup and Johnson’s classification was used, and grade III patients were submitted to frontal, lateral, and oblique radiographs. Eventually, a computed tomography (CT) was performed. The viable surface of the plantar cartilage and the percentage of the total joint was determined: if there is up to 50% of remaining plantar articular cartilage, the joint was preserved, indicating Weil osteotomy of the first metatarsal, associated with wide dorsal cheilectomy (type 3A); if less than 50%, metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis was indicated (type 3B). Patients with the first metatarsal at least 5 mm shorter than the second on frontal radiograph were excluded from the study. Results: A mean postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score of 91 was obtained. To date, no patient has needed arthrodesis, and all patients have increased joint range of motion. Shortening the central metatarsals was not necessary as a second procedure due to transfer metatarsalgia. Conclusion: Some joints classified as grade III can be treated with an osteotomy without needing arthrodesis. Level of Evidence IV; Therapeutic Study; Case Series.

“…1,2 Radiographic evidence of great toe arthritis is present in at least 27% of adults over the age of 50, although not every instance is symptomatic. [3][4][5] First-line treatment of hallux rigidus involves nonoperative management such as shoe modifications, orthotics, physical therapy, and sometimes joint injections. 6 In symptomatic patients still experiencing pain following nonoperative treatment, surgery may be considered.…”

Hallux rigidus, a common arthritic condition of the forefoot, affects a significant portion of the population, with ~8% of the population developing it at some point in their lives. Failure of first-line nonoperative treatment options may necessitate surgical treatment in symptomatic patients. Traditional surgical approaches include cheilectomy for milder cases and open arthrodesis for severe cases. The minimally invasive surgery approach to first metatarsophalangeal joint fusion is a novel technique that utilizes small incisions and arthroscopy for joint fusion. Fusion rates of 93% to 97% and low complication rates were reported by several studies on this technique. The technique involves percutaneous portal development, joint preparation and debridement, joint reduction, and fixation using k-wires and compression screws. The proper positioning of the toe is crucial to ensure optimal functional outcomes. Indications for this technique include advanced arthritis, significant scar tissue, and patient concern for cosmetic outcomes. Contraindications include poor bone quality, revision fusion, significant bone loss, active infection, or vascular compromise. Preoperative planning involves a comprehensive physical examination and imaging to assess the extent of the arthritis and any associated deformities. Complications of the procedure may include nonunion, malunion, iatrogenic thermal burns, and asymmetrical joint preparation. Postoperative management includes weight-bearing restrictions, regular follow-up visits, and gradual progression to normal activities. Preliminary results demonstrate promising outcomes for minimally invasive surgery first metatarsophalangeal fusions.
