Absorbable fixation of first ray osteotomies.
Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery 1994 May
A study was undertaken to evaluate the use of ORTHOSORB absorbable pin fixation for distal first ray osteotomies, in the management of hallux valgus. Data presented include 20 osteotomies fixated with ORTHOSORB absorbable pins in a crossing fashion, performed in 14 patients with an average follow-up period of 11 months. The patient population presented with an average age of 30, all were female. The patient pool was evaluated for hallux abductus, metatarsus primus varus, tibial sesamoid position, quality and quantity of range of motion at the first metatarsophalangeal joint, metatarsalgia, and osteolysis, both before and after surgery. No osteotomy displacement, delayed healing, or osteonecrosis was noted in this study. No adverse clinical reactions were observed in response to the ORTHOSORB pins.
