Abstract:	A prospective study of 10 patients (12 feet) with hallux rigidus treated with arthrodesis using dowel technique was carried out. The age range was from 46 to 58 years. They were followed up for an average 18 months. Clinical and radiological fusion was demonstrated in 92% of patients. One patient developed asymptomatic pseudarthrosis. Seventy per cent patients were completely satisfied. The ability to wear desired footwear improved in 66% and was unchanged in 34%. A literature search did not reveal report of similar technique for this condition in the past.
