Mid-term Results of the MOJE Hallux MP Joint Replacement

Abstract

In spite of the good clinical outcome at the mid-term stage with 91% implant survival, given the widespread loosening and subsidence encountered in our study, the long-term outcome following this procedure is uncertain.

Second-Generation Ceramic First Metatarsophalangeal Joint Replacement for Hallux Rigidus

“…2,12,17,27,29 Nevertheless, some studies with shorter follow-up showed similar mean AOFAS scores as the present study (Table 2). 6,23 Although some studies with short-term follow-up have shown a low frequency of revision, 11,15,17 studies with longer follow-up have shown higher frequency of revision, consistent with the present results (Table 2). 23,26 Therefore, longer follow-up is needed to evaluate the long-term implant survival of first MP joint replacement.…”

“…The present study has the longest follow-up of all studies with this prosthesis to date ( Table 2). Previous studies with this prosthesis have included 13 case series (Table 2), 2,3,6,8,11,12,15,17,21,23,26,27,29 2 abstracts, 10,19 and 2 case reports, 13,28 and 3 previous studies have evaluated the outcome of revision procedures 32,33 or lesser toe replacement surgery 34 with this type of prosthesis.…”

A Retrospective Review of the Primus First MTP Joint Double-Stemmed Silicone Implant

“…Also, 30 of the initial 42 implants were X rayed at 24 months, and 4 of the 30 showed evidence of progressive loosening. A larger study was published by McGraw et al 38 that included 63 component systems in 48 patients, with a mean follow-up of 44 months. Even though the postoperative AOFAS score was 72, they questioned whether use of this implant should be continued.…”

Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogel Hemiarthroplasty of the Great Toe

“…[11][12][13] A randomized controlled trial of 39 metal alloy MTP joint replacements showed subsidence of the phalangeal component requiring revision in 6 toes and radiographic loosening in a further 8 toes for a loosening rate of 35% at 2 years.
