In an 11-year retrospective study of 45 patients (60 feet) with juvenile hallux valgus, a multiprocedural approach was used to surgically correct the deformity. A Chevron osteotomy or McBride procedure was used for mild deformities, a distal soft tissue procedure with proximal first metatarsal osteotomy was used for moderate and severe deformities with MTP subluxation, and a double osteotomy (extra-articular correction) was used for moderate and severe deformities with an increased distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA). The average hallux valgus correction was 17.2° and the average correction of the 1–2 intermetatarsal angle was 5.3°. Good and excellent results were obtained in 92% of cases using a multiprocedural approach. Eighty-eight percent of patients were female and 40% of deformities occurred at age 10 or younger. Early onset was characterized by increased deformity and an increased DMAA. Maternal transmission was noted in 72% of patients. An increased distal metatarsal articular angle was noted in 48% of cases. With subluxation of the first MTP joint, the average DMAA was 7.9°. With a congruent joint, the average DMAA was 15.3°. In patients where hallux valgus occurred at age 10 or younger, the DMAA was increased. First metatarsal length was compared with second metatarsal length. While the incidence of a long first metatarsal was similar to that in the normal population (30%), the DMAA was 15.8° for a long first metatarsal and 6.0° for a short first metatarsal. An increased DMAA may be the defining characteristic of juvenile hallux valgus. The success of surgical correction of a juvenile hallux valgus deformity is intimately associated with the magnitude of the DMAA. Moderate and severe pes planus occurred in 17% of cases, which was no different than the incidence in the normal population. No recurrences occurred in the presence of pes planus. Pes planus was not thought to have an affect on occurrence or recurrence of deformity. Moderate and severe metatarsus adductus was noted in 22% of cases, a rate much higher than that in the normal population. The presence of metatarsus adductus did not affect the preoperative hallux valgus angle or the average surgical correction of the hallux valgus angle. Constricting footwear was noted by only 24% of patients as playing a role in the development of juvenile hallux valgus. There were six recurrences of the deformities and eight complications (six cases of postoperative hallux varus, one case of wire breakage, and one case of undercorrection).

Category: Bunion Introduction/Purpose: Hallux valgus treatment in the setting of associated metatarsus adductus is less common and not well described. The presence of metatarsus adductus reduces the gap between the first and second metatarsals. Consequently, it complicates the measurement of the first-second intermetatarsal angle and can limit the area available for transposition of the first metatarsal head. If distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) is also increased here, it is difficult to correct. We investigated the effects of rotational distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy (DCMO) on hallux valgus associated with metatarsus adductus and increased DMAA. Methods: Twelve patients, (12 female, 15 feet), of average age 59 (SD 23) with symptomatic hallux valgus associated with metatarsus adductus and increased DMAA underwent a rotation DCMO and were reviewed at an average of 12 months postoperatively. Clinically preoperative and postoperative AOFAS hallux MP-IP scale and satisfaction after the surgery were analyzed. Radiologically hallux valgus angle, the 1st intermetatarsal angle, DMAA before and after the operation was analyzed. Results: Distal Chevron osteotomy was done in 15 cases. After DCMO, The distal fragment was translated to laterally as far as possible and rotated to reduce DMAA. Clinically AOFAS scale was increased from 65.3 points preoperatively to 92.2 points postoperatively. Two patients were not satisfied with the results. Radiologically hallux valgus angle was decreased from 21.8° preoperatively to 8.5° postoperatively. The first intermetatarsal angle was decreased from 11.8° preoperatively to 6.7° postoperatively. DMAA was decreased from 15.8° preoperatively to 5.5° postoperatively. Conclusion: The rotational DCMO was an effective procedure for correcting hallux valgus associated with metatarsus adductus and increased DMAA. It allowed good realignment of the first MTP joint without the need for lesser metatarsal surgery to reduce the metatarsus adductus.

Background: This study aimed to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes and recurrence rates after reverse proximal chevron metatarsal osteotomy (PCMO) for patients with hallux valgus (HV) with or without metatarsus adductus (MA). We hypothesized that patients with MA would have poorer outcomes and a higher radiographic recurrence rate than those without MA. Methods: This retrospective single-surgeon series comprised 144 patients (173 feet) with moderate to severe HV, treated with PCMO and Akin osteotomy without lesser metatarsal procedures, who were grouped according to the presence (MA group) or absence of MA (non-MA group). Clinical assessment included the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, pain visual analog scale (VAS), and patient satisfaction rating. Radiographic assessments included metatarsus adductus angle (MAA), HV angle (HVA), and intermetatarsal angle (IMA). Results: The prevalence of the MA was 24.2%. The mean MAA was 23.1 ± 3.3 degrees in the MA group. There were no differences in the mean AOFAS score and pain VAS score at the final follow-up between the 2 groups (all P > .05). The patient satisfaction rate was 73.8% in the MA group vs 90.1% in the non-MA group ( P = .017). The mean postoperative HVA and IMA significantly improved at the final follow-up in both groups, respectively (all P < .001). Preoperative and postoperative HVA were larger in the MA group vs non-MA group. However, no significant difference was found in the improvement of HVA and IMA after surgery between the 2 groups (all P > .05). The recurrence rate was 28.6% in the MA group and 6.1% in the non-MA group ( P < .001). Conclusion: HV patients associated with the MA had a higher degree of preoperative HV, lower correction of the HVA, higher radiographic recurrence rate, and poorer patient satisfaction than those without MA post-PCMO without lesser metatarsal procedures. Therefore, a more extensive HV correction procedure or the addition of a lesser metatarsal realignment procedure may need to be considered. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative series.
