Foot surgery outcomes study for bunion and forefoot alignment
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re at least 14 years old, and your growth plates are fully closed
- Your foot measurements must meet specific angle thresholds for bunion and forefoot alignment
- You must be able to follow post-surgery care plans and attend follow-up visits for months afterward
- If you’re able to get pregnant: you must use non-childbearing birth control and have a negative pregnancy test
- You can’t have had prior bunion surgery on the side being treated
- You must agree not to have other reconstructive surgery on the other foot for at least 6 months

This study tests a new computer-guided system to help surgeons perform bunion correction surgery (called a Lapidus procedure) more accurately. Participants will receive this guided surgery along with a standard implant, and researchers will track how well the surgery works and how patients recover.
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 tests if using a connected app to do self-guided rehab at home helps people recover better after bunion (hallux valgus) surgery. It may offer a convenient way to follow your exercises and track progress.
This trial tests a special implant designed to repair damage and arthritis in the big toe joint. If you have moderate-to-severe big toe pain and aren't helped by other treatments, this surgery may reduce pain and improve movement.
This study compares whether it’s safer to put weight on your foot early versus only partly after bunion surgery. It may help your care team choose the best recovery plan for healing and comfort.
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.
