Received a cartiva joint replacement implant in my left big toe to help resolve hallux rigidus. In more than a year post-surgery, my pain has increased to levels worse than it was before surgery. Received a second opinion from another surgeon who stated that the joint space has decreased significantly and she recommends removing the cartiva implant and replacing it with a hemicap implant. She mentioned she sees a lot of failed cartiva implants. Surgery to remove cartiva and replace it with hemicap scheduled for (b)(6) 2019. Fda safety report id # (b)(4).
