First seen Apr 04, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests whether a screw made from donated human bone works as well as a metal screw for fixing bunions (hallux valgus). About 40 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either screw during surgery. Researchers will track pain, appearance, and bone healing over two years to see if the new screw causes fewer complications.
