PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Total arthroplasty of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is one of the surgical treatment options for patients with advanced hallux rigidus. This study evaluates the pressure changes in the propulsion phase of the gait cycle using dynamic pedobarography after the total arthroplasty of the first metatarsophalangeal joint by Medin PH-Flex and their comparison with the control groups of patients with hallux rigidus and with asymptomatic patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Dynamic pedobarograph was used to evaluate 15 first MTP joint replacements by Medin PH-Flex implants in 12 female patients, the average time since joint replacement was 3.5 years (1.5 to 5.5 years). The control group consisted of 13 forefeet in 12 patients with hallux rigidus of Grade 3 and Grade 4 according to the Coughlin classification and 17 healthy patients with no clear foot deformity, i.e. of a total of 34 forefeet. A zone for each metatarsal (M1-M5) and the big toe area (T1) were defined with the use of an integrated software. The difference between the pressure under the big toe area and the first metatarsal bone - hallux stiffness (T1-M1) and the forefoot balance parameter, i.e. the difference between the pressures under the medial and lateral half of the forefoot ((M1+M2)-(M3+M4+M5)), was obtained. The parameters were evaluated for each group during the propulsion phase of the gait, i.e. from 55% to 100% of the stance phase and from 75% to 100% of the stance phase, i.e. that part of propulsion when the greatest pressure is exerted on the big toe. RESULTS For the HS parameter (T1-M1) in 55% to 100% of the stance phase, the median value was -0.66 ± 1.22 (-1.90 to 1.45) in the control group, -0.85 ± 1.94 (-1.40 to 3.80) in patients with hallux rigidus, and -0.10 ± 1.48 (-1.30 to 2.40) in patients after the first MTP joint replacement. The median forefoot balance parameter from 55% of the stance phase was -3.48 ± 2.45 (-6.90 to 0.68) in healthy patients and -4.43 ± 2.72 (-6.98 to 0.23) in hallux rigidus patients. In patients after the joint replacement, the value was -3.00 ± 2.46 (-6.20 to 0.40). The data were statistically analysed by the Dunnett's and Tukey's multiple comparison tests. The hallux stiffness parameter showed a significant improvement after the joint replacement compared to patients with hallux rigidus (p<0.0001). No statistical significance was confirmed when comparing the joint replacement cases and the healthy patients from the control group (p=0.0007 and p=0.0010, respectively). As concerns the forefoot balance parameter, a significant difference was reported in patients with joint replacement compared to healthy patients from the control group and patients with hallux rigidus (p <0.0001). DISCUSSION The published pedobarographic studies differ in terms of the methodology used, the patient population and the parameters examined. The pedobarographic studies after the replacement of the first MTP joint or after its arthrodesis present inconclusive outcomes. According to the available literature, the joint replacement has the potential to improve mediolateral forefoot loading and to partially restore the weight-bearing function of the first ray. Our analysis of the HS parameter suggests that the MTP joint replacement can improve the big toe function compared to patients with hallux rigidus but fails to achieve the functional outcomes of healthy patients. When evaluating the forefoot balance (FB) parameter, we can observe less loading on the lateral half of the forefoot in the propulsion phase compared to hallux rigidus. Nonetheless, the joint replacement is unable to restore the physiological loading of the foot. CONCLUSIONS The first MTP joint replacement has the potential to improve forefoot function and to bring it closer to that of a healthy person, even though achieving physiological loading of the forefoot is unrealistic. Additional studies will be needed to confirm that the indication for the first MTP joint replacement is justified in hallux rigidus in terms of the effect on forefoot biomechanics. Key words: hallux rigidus, total replacement of the first MTP joint, dynamic pedobarography, footscan.

Osteoporóza je velmi časté onemocnění u žen po menopauze, které je charakterizováno zvýšeným kostním obratem, pokračující ztrátou kostní hmoty, zhoršováním mikroarchitektury kosti a zvýšeným rizikem kostní zlomeniny. V léčbě osteoporózy se využívají antiresorpční léčiva, nejčastěji bisfosfonáty.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: The first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint replacement ranks among the treatment methods of patients with hallux rigidus. The paper aims to evaluate the short-term to mid-term outcomes and to present clinical experience with our Medin PH-flex implant. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the period from January 2011 to 2016 we performed total replacement of the first MTP joint in 31 patients, in 4 cases bilaterally. In total, 35 implants were evaluated. The mean age of the patient at the time of surgery was 57.7 years (39-72 years). The surgery was conducted in 29 women and 2 men. The patients were evaluated using the AOFAS score (American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society score), the radiographs were assessed as to the potential occurrence of radiolucent lines, with major stress put on the assessment of the mobility in MTP joint and its position. The pain was assessed based on the VAS score. RESULTS Prior to the joint replacement surgery, the mean AOFAS score in patients was 55.6 (35-65). Postoperatively, the mean AOFAS score was 80.8 (65-95). The pain suffered by patients was evaluated with the use of the Pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS score). The preoperative mean VAS score was 5 (2-8), whereas the postoperative score improved to mean VAS 2 (0-4). The range of motion was clinically assessed with a goniometer. The mean range of motion of plantar flexion and dorsiflexion was 16.00° (5-35°) and 28.60° (10-55°), respectively. The mean range of motion was 36° (15-60°). No intraoperative complications were observed. In all the patients, the surgical wound healed per primam. In 2 female - (5.7 %) of the whole group of patients who underwent surgery a deep infection occurred, namely 10 and 21 months following the implantation. In both the female patients their condition was managed by joint revision operation and by a simple removal of the implant. DISCUSSION Joint replacement related matters were repeatedly discussed in professional literature. There are many papers published in the literature on this topic. A whole range of the first MTP joint implants of different shapes have been developed, with extremely different clinical results. CONCLUSIONS An appropriately chosen type of the implant, a fitting indication and a correctly applied implantation technique can lead to the desired good outcome. The first MTP joint replacement should be indicated after careful consideration since the management of a potential joint replacement failure can often be very technically challenging and quite mutilating for the patient. The mid-term outcomes of the Medin a.s. first MTP implant seem to be promising. It will, however, be necessary to wait for long-term outcomes in order to evaluate the final benefits of this type of implant in patients with hallux rigidus. Key words: hallux rigidus, arthroplasty of the MTP joint, hemiarthroplasty, silicone implant.
