Study of outcomes after bunion surgery for cartilage damage
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at how well bunion (hallux valgus) surgery works, especially when there is cartilage damage in the joint. The goal is to see what factors predict better or worse outcomes after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have bunion/joint misalignment called hallux valgus
- You are at least 30 years old
- You are no older than 60 years old
- You do not have other major foot problems besides hallux valgus

This study asks people having bunion (hallux valgus) surgery to provide information so researchers can better predict which results are most likely after surgery. It may help improve care for future patients by identifying factors linked to better or worse outcomes.
This trial studies results after a combined bunion and forefoot alignment surgery to improve foot shape and function. It may help people whose foot angles show significant bunion and front-of-foot deformity.
This study looks at how your shoe size and the shape of the front of your foot change after bunion surgery. The goal is to better predict what shoes will fit after recovery, so you can plan for your new shoe size.
This trial compares two ways of fixing the bone after bunion surgery (using one or two small wires). It's for people with severe bunions who haven't gotten better with non-surgical treatments.
This study looks at whether doing more or less weight-bearing affects recovery after a first toe (1st MTP) joint fusion. It may help improve walking comfort and healing after surgery for people whose non-surgical treatments did not work.
This study tests a new type of bandage or dressing used after bunion (hallux valgus) surgery. It aims to see if this dressing works better than the usual dressing to help your foot heal.
