This is the first prospective study to report the pre- and post-operative
patient reported outcomes and satisfaction scores following excision
of interdigital Morton’s neuroma. Between May 2006 and April 2013, we prospectively studied 99
consecutive patients (111 feet) who were to undergo excision of
a Morton’s neuroma. There were 78 women and 21 men with a mean age
at the time of surgery of 56 years (22 to 78). Patients completed
the Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOXFQ), Short Form-12
(SF-12) and a supplementary patient satisfaction survey three months
pre-operatively and six months post-operatively.Aims

metallic hemiarthroplasty for the treatment of hallux rigidius. We reviewed 97 consecutive BioPro metallic hemiarthroplasties
performed in 80 patients for end-stage hallux rigidus, with a minimum
follow-up of five years. There were 19 men and 61 women; their mean
age was 55 years (22 to 74). No patient was lost to follow-up.Aims
