Zadek osteotomy for Haglund's syndrome
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a surgery called Zadek osteotomy for people with Haglund's syndrome (a painful heel condition). It may help those who haven't gotten better after at least six months of non-surgical treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two surgery types for painful Achilles tendon at the heel. It helps find which surgery better relieves pain and improves walking.
This trial studies a surgery that uses your own tissue (bone/cartilage part) to repair a specific, advanced ankle cartilage injury (Hepple V) in the talus bone. It may help people with ongoing ankle pain when rest and anti-inflammatory treatments haven’t worked.
This trial is testing different ways to correct the alignment of the shin bone (high tibial osteotomy) to find the best angle for relieving pain from osteoarthritis on the inner side of the knee. This surgery may help you by redistributing weight away from the damaged area.
This study tests a surgery called calcaneal osteotomy (shifting the heel bone to relieve pressure) for people with long-lasting plantar fasciosis (heel pain) that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if this surgery can reduce pain and improve function.
This trial tests two surgical treatments for thumb base arthritis (rhizarthrosis) when other treatments like splints and injections haven't worked. It compares a newer joint implant (arthroplasty) with a standard procedure to remove a small bone (trapezectomy). The goal is to see which helps patients recover hand function better.
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.
