Previous surgical approaches in younger active patients unsuited to destructive procedures have been limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec sec-type=\"materials|methods\">\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Thirty-three patients (36 procedures) were reviewed between 2 and 4 years following total sesamoidectomy for the management of hallux rigidus\/limitus. The American Orthopedic Foot &amp; Ankle Society hallux (AOFAS) clinical rating system was used to compare pre and postoperative scores. The range and quality of motion and transfer metatarsalgia were noted. The three most important patient problems and the degree to which these had been addressed by the surgery and the time to maximal improvement were noted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec sec-type=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      No significant functional impairment or malalignment were found. There were no instances of pain on metatarsal compression, or of transfer metatarsalgia with or without callus formation.
