Significant improvements in functional outcomes were noted in both treatment groups after surgery, with a focus on clinical effectiveness.
AOFAS scores were notably higher in patients who received microfracture alongside cheilectomy, at a significance level of p=0.0168.
The study involved 62 patients with hallux rigidus, divided into two treatment groups, observed over an average follow-up of roughly 25 months.
While both treatments improved pain and mobility, the addition of microfracture did not increase complication rates despite enhanced outcomes.
