Coalition of the hallux sesamoids is an extremely rare condition. To our knowledge, only 1 case report has been published. We report a case of severe hallux valgus deformities with coalitions of the hallux sesamoids. The coalitions themselves were asymptomatic; however, this severe hallux valgus deformity needed to be surgically treated. The hallux sesamoids in both feet appeared to be fused and heart shaped on anteroposterior radiographs and dumbbell shaped on axial radiographs. It is known that postoperative incomplete reduction of the medial sesamoids can be a risk factor for the recurrence of hallux valgus. The computed tomography scan demonstrated a groove in the bottom of the center of the heart-shaped sesamoid. The flexor hallucis longus tendon was located in the groove. Therefore, a modified Lapidus procedure was performed considering the medial half of the heart-shaped sesamoid as the medial sesamoid. Although delayed union occurred, successful correction of the deformity was achieved. Levels of Evidence: Level IV

Abstract Background and Purpose. The Functional Standing Balance (FSB) Scale was designed to obtain measurements of standing balance and to identify the problems typically faced by people with stroke. The purpose of this study was to investigate the validity of measurements obtained with the FSB Scale for use in the acute and chronic phases of stroke by comparing the measurements obtained with the FSB Scale with those obtained for postural sway and lateral symmetry by use of a force platform. Subjects and Methods. Measurements were obtained for 26 people with recent strokes (ie, strokes within 3 weeks of data collection) and for 28 people with long-standing strokes (ie, strokes of 6 months' duration or older). The FSB Scale consists of 3 components: weight distribution, balance without movement, and balance with movement. Measurements of balance performance were compared with measurements of anteroposterior and lateral sway velocity obtained on a force platform. The weight distribution on 2 digital scales was compared with the lateral symmetry measured on the force platform. Results. The highest correlations were found between the FSB Scale balance measurements and the measurements of anteroposterior sway velocity obtained on the force platform with feet apart and eyes open. The correlations (r) were −.68 and −.67 for the group with recent strokes and −.74 and −.91 for the group with long-standing strokes. The correlations (r) between weight distribution measured on the digital scales and lateral symmetry measured on the force platform were .44 for the group with recent strokes and .52 for the group with long-standing strokes. Discussion and Conclusion. The subjects whose results on the FSB Scale were poor had higher sway velocities on the force platform than the subjects whose results on the FSB Scale were good. The results of this study suggest that the FSB Scale provides the same kind of information as that obtained for sway velocity and lateral symmetry as measured with the use of force platforms in both patients with recent strokes and patients with long-standing strokes.

Hallux valgus interphalangeus deformity has been previously reported in the literature following trauma and first metatarsophalangeal joint fusion. However, to the best of our knowledge, hallux varus interphalangeus deformity has not been previously reported. We present the case of a 26-year-old skeletally mature woman who sustained an acute, open hallux varus interphalangeus injury following an osteochondral fracture of the medial head of the proximal phalanx.

The authors describe a case report of a patient with compensated metatarsus adductus and juvenile hallux valgus bilaterally. Treatment included closing base wedge abductory osteotomies of metatarsals one through five, modified McBride bunionectomy, Evans calcaneal osteotomy, and a percutaneous tendo Achillis lengthening. The patient maintained excellent correction on the right foot after 6 years. Hallux valgus recurred on the left foot after 2 years. The authors attribute this recurrence to a significant internal femoral torsion on the left leg. The significance of superstructural deformities on juvenile hallux valgus is discussed.
