Comparative gait analysis of ankle arthrodesis and arthroplasty: initial findings of a prospective study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Recurrent pain and deformity following forefoot surgery can cause significant patient disability. In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint arthrodesis with lesser metatarsal head resections-termed the rheumatoid forefoot reconstruction-has been shown to be a reliable opera...
