Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The primary propose of this prospective study is to specifically evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Minimally Invasive Distal Metatarsal Metaphyseal Osteotomy (DMMO) in treating patients with persistent central primary metatarsalgia, associated or not to hallux valgus and lesser toe deformities, identifying possible contraindications in relation to some demographic parameters (age, gender, BMI, and smoking). The second objective is to verify the potential of DMMO in restoring a harmonious foot morphotype according to Maestro's criteria and if these radiographic parameters are correlated with clinical outcomes, maintaining the predictive value of these criteria during preoperative planning also for this percutaneous surgery.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Distal Metatarsal Metaphyseal Osteotomy (DMMO)

Detailed Description

A consecutive series of patients with metatarsalgia is consecutively enrolled and treated by DMMO. According to Maestro criteria, pre-operative planning is carried out by both clinical and radiological assessment. Patient demographic data, AOFAS scores, 17-Foot Functional Index, Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire, SF-36, VAS, and complications are recorded. Maestro parameters, relative morphotypes, and bone callus formation are assessed. Statistical analysis is carried out (p < 0.05).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Evaluation of the 100-point hallux metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal scale (AOFAS) changes [preoperatively, 3-, 6-, 12-months]

    The AOFAS score includes 9 questions related to pain, function and alignment; a score of 90-100 is considered excellent; 75-89 as good; 50-74 as fair and less than 49 points is considered a failure or a poor outcome.

  2. Evaluation of the Foot Functional Index changes [preoperatively, 3-, 6-, 12-months]

    The Foot Functional Index to measure the persistence of pain, disability, and restriction of activity with 17 number rating scales from 0 to 10. The maximum score is 100, which indicates complete disability.

  3. Evalutation of the Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire changes [preoperatively, 3-, 6-, 12-months]

    The Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire to establish how frequent the restrictions in specific situations were, including 16 questions divided into three basic domains: pain (five), walking/standing (seven), and social interaction (four). Scores for each domain are calculated by summing the responses to each item within a given domain. Raw scores can be converted to a 0-100 metric where 100=most severe.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Radiographic classification according to Maestro and Besse criteria [before surgery, at one-month after surgery and at different follow-ups (3-, 6-, 12-month, and last)]

    Our sample is classified radiographically according to Maestro and Besse criteria, adding to this classification one more group to include those feet that did not reflect any morphotype as defined by Maestro parameters. The radiographic evaluations includes the Maestro criteria index using the preoperative and the last follow up. The relative length of each metatarsal is determined by drawing a line perpendicular to the axis of the foot and then measuring the distances (in millimeters) from each metatarsal head to this line , while also taking into account the relationship between the length of metatarsal M1 and the length of the remaining metatarsal bones.
