RAYO PEREZ, Ana María; RODRIGUEZ CASTILLO, Francisco Javier; RAYO ROSADO, Rafael e REINA BUENO, María. Surgical treatment of rheumatic foot by arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and metatarsal panresection. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2023, vol.37, n.4 Epub 02-Maio-2024.

Introduction:
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune, inflammatory, chronic and progressive disease that affects the locomotor system. It can cause deformity, pain, and decreased function of the foot. The treatment can be conservative or surgical.
Objective:
To demonstrate the efficacy of arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint with metatarsal panresection in the surgical treatment of the rheumatoid foot.
Methods:
Ten cases of patients with positive rheumatoid factor who underwent arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and metatarsal panresection were reported. Immediate post-surgical follow-up and one year of evolution were assessed.
Results:
After the intervention, a mean Likert scale satisfaction of 9.3 was achieved and a visual analogue pain scale mean of 2.0. Likewise, the hallux abductus valgus and intermetatarsal I-II angles decreased considerably.
Conclusions:
The combination of arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint with metatarsal panresection is used in this type of patients, since it favors the functionality of the foot and significantly reduces painful symptoms.
