Summary
This study tested a special carbon fiber plate (CoLink PCR MTP) in 18 adults with hallux rigidus, a painful stiff big toe caused by arthritis. Surgeons removed damaged cartilage and used the plate and screws to fuse the joint. The main goal was to see if the bones healed together properly, which could ease pain and improve movement.
