Abstract

The authors present a retrospective study of 47 digits, with an average follow-up of 15 months, using the Silastic Hammertoe Implant H.P. The complications inherent with all implants are reviewed and the specific problems noted with this implant, including dislocation, bony regrowth, and lack of a superior cosmetic result, are discussed.
