According to a study published in October 2020 by the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society*, the results show an alarming rate of device failure.

Study Highlights:

⇢ 64% of individuals who received a Cartiva implant for hallux rigidus experienced failure within four weeks of surgery.

⇢ 79% of individuals who received a Cartiva implant for hallux rigidus experienced failure 19 months after surgery.

The study also found that the implant did not preserve the joint space or prevent further cartilage damage.

Broken Promises, Painful Realities: Cartiva® Implant

Cartiva® synthetic cartilage implants were hailed as a revolutionary solution for patients experiencing hallux limitus or hallux rigidus, a form of arthritis that affects the first metatarsophalangeal joint, or big toe. This form of arthritis affects millions of people each year. 


Cartiva® Toe Implants are synthetic devices that are supposed to relieve pain and improve mobility for people with arthritis in the big toe. However, instead of experiencing relief, many patients reported severe side effects such as: 

✘ Infection Revision Surgery Fragmentation

Bone ErosionNerve DamageLoss of range of motion

Patients Report Premature Cartiva® Implant Failures

If your Cartiva® toe implant has failed, causing pain, limited mobility, and additional surgeries, you're not alone. Thousands of patients who received Cartiva® implants for hallux rigidus are complaining of


• Premature implant failure requiring revision surgery

• Persistent pain and discomfort despite revision surgery

• Loss of mobility and function in the toe

Some of these patients have filed lawsuits against the manufacturer of Cartiva Toe Implants, claiming that the company failed to warn them of the risks and defects of the product. These patients are making serious allegations against the company including:

Defective design and materials: Studies suggest Cartiva® implants degrade and shrink, causing instability and pain.


Fast-tracked FDA approval: Concerns exist that potential risks were not adequately assessed before market release.


Failure to warn of risks: Patients and healthcare providers may not have been fully informed about the potential for implant failure.
