Objective: To analyze the outcomes of percutaneous hallux valgus correction using the Reverdin-Isham osteotomy through clinical and radiographic studies. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 43 feet in 38 patients with mild or moderate hallux valgus from June 2009 to July 2018. The mean age at surgery was 59 years; the mean postoperative follow-up time was 79 months. All patients treated with the Reverdin technique modified by Isham were evaluated in the pre- and postoperative periods using the American Association Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score; we radiographically measured the hallux valgus angle (HVA), the intermetatarsal angle (IMA) and the first distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA). Results: The AOFAS score increased by an average of 55 points. On average, the HVA decreased by 14°, the IMA by 3° and the DMAA by 9°. The mean reduction in the length of the first metatarsal bone was 0.3 cm. Conclusion: This surgical technique was effective for hallux valgus correction, demonstrating good angle correction and a marked increase in the AOFAS score.

We evaluated the results of 33 feet in 23 patients who underwent a basilar crescentic osteotomy with a modified McBride procedure with a minimum 24-month follow-up. The average hallux valgus improved from 37.5° to 13.8° and the intermetatarsal 1–2 angle from 14.9° to 4.7°. The angle of declination of the first metatarsal was found to have dorsiflexed an average of 6.2°. Unfortunately, osteotomies secured with staples dorsiflexed to a greater degree. Bilateral foot surgery produced results similar to those with unilateral procedures. Four of our patients developed a hallux varus (range 2–8°); however, none were dissatisfied at the time of evaluation. Although this bunion procedure resulted in more prolonged swelling and pain than a distal osteotomy, it should be considered for more complex deformities to avoid the failure that a distal metatarsal osteotomy might produce given a high 1–2 intermetatarsal angle or a high hallux valgus angle.

Twenty-six patients with moderate-to-severe hallux valgus deformities were evaluated before and after treatment. All of the patients had incongruent great toe joints. The patients underwent modified proximal crescentic osteotomy, which was termed proximal oblique crescentic osteotomy. The results were evaluated at an average follow-up time of 55 weeks. Objective criteria were hallux valgus angle, intermetatarsal angle, shortening of the first metatarsal, and angulation at the osteotomy site. Clinical evaluation was made according to the rating system of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society. The mean correction of the hallux valgus and intermetatarsal angles was 22.1° and 9.9°, respectively. Short-term results indicate that proximal oblique crescentic osteotomy is effective in the treatment of hallux valgus; its advantages over other procedures include its technical ease and low rate of complications.

Objective: The present study was conducted to clinically and radiographically analyze the outcomes of the surgical treatment of mild and moderate hallux valgus using the modified Reverdin-Isham technique. Methods: We retrospectively studied 46 feet of 39 patients with mild and moderate hallux valgus from June 2010 to July 2017. The mean postoperative follow-up was 36 months, and the mean patient age was 53 years. All patients who underwent the modified Reverdin-Isham technique were clinically and radiologically evaluated before and after surgery using the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scale, and radiographs were acquired to calculate the hallux valgus angle (HVA), the intermetatarsal angle (IMA) and the distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA). Results: The AOFAS score increased by a mean of 54 points. Radiologically, the mean HVA decreased by an average of 17.1°, the IMA by 4.2° and the DMAA by 12°. Conclusion: The modified percutaneous Reverdim-Isham technique made it possible to correct mild and moderate hallux valgus deformities with good angular correction and increased stability compared with the classical technique, in addition to providing an increase in the AOFAS score.

Background: We compared the radiographic and clinical outcomes of moderate and severe hallux valgus treated by extended distal chevron osteotomy (EDCO) and distal soft tissue release (DSTR). Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis comparing the utility of EDCO for the treatment of moderate (36 patients, 46 feet) and severe (36 patients, 42 feet) hallux valgus. The radiologic outcomes were evaluated based on the preoperative and 3-year follow-up x-rays. The clinical results were investigated based on the 3-year follow-up Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOXFQ), patient satisfaction, and postoperative complications. Results: The mean postoperative intermetatarsal angle, hallux valgus angle, tibial sesamoid position, and relative metatarsal bone length were significantly different compared with the preoperative values for both the moderate and severe groups ( P < .001). At 3-year follow-up, intergroup differences were observed in the mean postoperative intermetatarsal angle ( P = .001), hallux valgus angle ( P = .003), and tibial sesamoid position ( P = .013); however, mean radiographic results were within the normal range for both groups. There were no intergroup differences for either the first metatarsal bone length ( P = .172) or shortening ( P = .621). No significant difference in MOXFQ ( P = .525) was evident between the groups at 3-year follow-up. In satisfaction analysis, 82.6% of the moderate group reported good to excellent results, as did 81.0% of the severe group ( P = .815). A total of 7 complications were reported in each group ( P = 1.000). Conclusion: The present study showed that midterm mean radiographic results of both moderate and severe hallux valgus treated by EDCO with DSTR were favorable, and those values were within the normal range. Clinical outcomes were comparable between the 2 groups, including overall efficacy. Based on these results, we recommend EDCO with DSTR as an efficient and reliable operative option for both moderate and severe hallux valgus. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Objective: To analyze outcomes of hallux valgus surgical correction using the Reverdin-Isham technique by means of clinical and radiographic studies. Methods: We retrospectively assessed 43 feet (38 patients) with moderate to severe hallux valgus treated from June 2009 to July 2014. Mean age at surgery was 59 years; mean postoperative follow-up time was 79 months. Patients were assessed at pre- and postoperative periods both functionally, by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, and radiographically, by the hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA), distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA), and shortening of 1st metatarsal bone. Results: AOFAS scores had a mean increase of 55 points. Mean HVA decreased 14.5°, whereas IMA and DMAA exhibited a mean decrease of 3.8° and 9.7°, respectively. Mean shortening of the first metatarsal bone was 3mm. Conclusion: The presented surgical technique showed to be effective to correct mild to moderate hallux valgus, resulting in appropriate angle correction angular and significant increase in AOFAS scores.

A modified Lapidus procedure was introduced at Harborview Medical Center in 1979 for the treatment of symptomatic hallux valgus with hypermobile first ray. The results of the procedures were reviewed retrospectively in 32 patients with 40 feet that were operated on between 1979 and 1984. Preoperative diagnosis was symptomatic hallux valgus complex with hypermobile first ray in 33 and failed bunion surgery in 7. Follow-up ranged from 30 months to 6 1/2 years. Union of the arthrodesis site occurred in 36 (90%). The average preoperative intrametatarsal angle was 14° (range 7.5 to 20°) and the hallux valgus angle was 26° (range 0 to 50°). At healing, the angles were as follows: intermetatarsal angle 6° (range 0 to 18°) and hallux valgus angle 11° (range −3 to 30°). The average change in the length of the first metatarsal was −5 mm for those without bone graft and +4 mm for those with bone graft. Of 33 feet operated on as a primary procedure, successful results were reported in 75% by our rating system. Of 7 feet operated on for failed previous surgery, all were improved. Best results were obtained in those with multiple screw fixation, use of bone graft, and attention to plantarflexion of the first metatarsal.

The Austin osteotomy is a widely accepted method for correction of mild and moderate hallux valgus. In view of publications by Kitaoka et al. in 1991 and by Mann and colleagues, a more radical lateral soft tissue procedure was added to the originally described procedure. From September 1992 to January 1994, 85 patients underwent an Austin osteotomy combined with a lateral soft tissue procedure to correct their hallux valgus deformities. Seventy-nine patients (94 feet) were available for follow-up. The average patient age at the time of the operation was 47.1 years, and the average follow-up was 16.2 months. The average preoperative intermetatarsal angle was 13.9°, and the average hallux valgus angle was 29.7°. After surgery, the feet were corrected to an average intermetatarsal angle of 5.8° and an average hallux valgus angle of 11.9°. Sesamoid position was corrected from 2.1 before surgery to 0.5 after surgery. The results were also graded according to the Hallux Metatarsophalangeal Interphalangeal Score, and the functional and cosmetic outcomes were graded by the patient. Dissection of the plantar transverse ligament and release of the lateral capsule repositioned the tibial sesamoid and restored the biomechanics around the first metatarsophalangeal joint. There was no increased incidence of avascular necrosis of the first metatarsal head compared with the original technique.

Category: Bunion Introduction/Purpose: Hallux valgus (HV) is one of the most common deformities of the foot resulting in pain and lifestyle modification of the patient. Recurrence rates of 10-47% have been documented in single individual osteotomy series. Unfortunately, surgical correction and recurrence are often defined as changes related to normal radiographs and not actually as the magnitude of correction lost with follow-up. Currently there have not been studies evaluating the percentage of recurrence of intermetatarsal angle (IMA) and hallux valgus angle (HVA). As there is substantial difference in starting IMA and HVA, as well as amount of surgical correction, our goal was to evaluate the percentage loss of correction over time comparing preoperative, initial postoperative and minimum of 2-year follow up radiographs among three different surgical correction techniques. Methods: This is a retrospective chart review study that examines the weight-bearing radiographic measurements of patients undergoing hallux valgus corrective surgery at a single institution over 5 years. Fifty-three patients were divided into first tarsometatarsal arthrodesis (i.e. Lapidus), mid-diaphyseal osteotomies (i.e. scarf), and distal metatarsal osteotomies (i.e. chevron). The preoperative, initial postoperative, and final follow up weight-bearing radiographs were measured for intermetatarsal angle (IMA) and hallux valgus angle (HVA). Primary outcome was percentage of recurrence of IMA and HVA, with the difference in angles between preoperative and initial postoperative weight-bearing films being considered 100% correction. The percentage of recurrence between initial postoperative and most recent follow up was then calculated (Figure 1A). A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test and post-hoc Tukey-Kramer tests were used to compare preoperative IMA and HVA and percentage recurrence of IMA and HVA at most recent follow up. Results: There was no significant difference between Lapidus (14.3deg) and mid-diaphyseal osteotomies (12.7deg) in preoperative IMA (p-value=0.26). There was a significant difference between Lapidus (-0.3deg) and mid-diaphyseal (2.8deg) osteotomies for degree of hallux valgus recurrence as measured by IMA between initial postoperative films and final 2-year follow up (p-value=0.009). Lapidus procedure showed a greater magnitude decrease in IMA degrees from preoperation to final follow up compared to distal osteotomy (p-value=0.037) and trended toward significance compared to mid-diaphyseal (p-value=0.056). Mid-diaphyseal osteotomies (30%) showed a statistically significant higher percentage of IMA recurrence compared to Lapidus (-11%) (p-value=0.0014) (Figure 1B). When comparing percentage recurrence of HVA, distal osteotomies had a significantly smaller rate of recurrence when compared to the diaphyseal osteotomies (p-value=0.030). Conclusion: Though Lapidus and mid-diaphyseal osteotomies were performed for patients with a similar preoperative IMA, mid-diaphyseal osteotomies had a significantly higher percentage of recurrence at 2-year follow up compared to Lapidus procedures. Moreover, Lapidus procedures trended toward greater overall of IMA correction compared to mid-diaphyseal osteotomies. When either a Lapidus or mid-diaphyseal osteotomy is indicated, a Lapidus procedure may result in decreased rate of radiographic recurrence of hallux valgus at 2 years.

Background: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of three different types of hallux valgus surgeries on patient function using validated questionnaires and to correlate the results with radiographic and physical examinations. This study presents the 2-year followup data of a previous prospective outcome study. Methods: One hundred and ninety-six patients were enrolled in this study and completed a baseline AAOS Lower Limb Outcomes Data Collection Questionnaire. They completed the same form at 6, 12, and 24 months after having one of three types of hallux valgus surgeries (106 chevron osteotomies, 72 modified McBride procedures, and 18 modified Lapidus procedures). This questionnaire included the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) as well as questions relating to lower extremity function. Additionally, physicians were asked to complete preoperative and postoperative questionnaires on each patient that included radiographic and physical examination data and the type of surgery done. Completed outcome surveys and radiographic data were available on 196 patients, and physical examination scores were available to assign an AOFAS score in 111 patients at 24-month followup. A one-way comparison was done after stratifying the results for the type of surgery, preoperative hallux valgus angle and 1-2 intermetatarsal angle, postoperative hallux valgus angle and 1-2 intermetatarsal angle, and the change in the angles. Results: Four of the 10 SF-36 scores (physical function, role-physical, bodily pain, and role-emotional) for the combined data improved by more than five points. For the AAOS lower extremity function scores, physical health and pain (68.5 to 81.6), satisfaction with symptoms (1.8 to 3.6), global foot and ankle (77.6 to 93.4), and shoe comfort (29.0 to 58.7) scores all increased significantly. The AOFAS score increased from 52.6 to 85.5 ( p < 0.001). Surprisingly, when comparing mild-to-moderate to severe deformities preoperatively and postoperatively using the absolute magnitude of the angular change in the hallux valgus or intermetatarsal angles, similar improvement was noted in AOFAS, SF-36, and AAOS lower extremity scores. The magnitude of preoperative deformity, postoperative residual deformity, and magnitude of correction also did not significantly change the amount of improvement in any of these scores. No significant differences were noted in the outcome scores among the three different surgeries. Conclusion: Patients who had hallux valgus surgery had significant improvements in four of their SF-36 scores, four of five of AAOS lower extremity scores, and AOFAS scores. The degree of deformity, amount of correction, or type of operation did not influence outcome.

Category: Bunion Introduction/Purpose: In hallux valgus deformity less weight can be borne by the first ray which may lead to transfer metatarsalgia and lesser toe deformities. Depending on the exact configuration of the bone cuts during the scarf procedure, an iatrogenic shortening of the first metatarsal may occur which may diminish weightbearing ability of the first ray as well, causing transfer metatarsalgia. The aim of the present study was therefore to determine preoperative and postoperative changes in length of the first metatarsal by using different methods of measuring metatarsal length. Methods: A consecutive series of 118 feet in 106 patients (89% female, 11% male) was enrolled, who underwent correctional osteotomy (Scarf-with/without Akin-Osteotomy) from May 2015 to July 2017 at a single institution. Patients, who underwent additional shortening osteotomy of the metatarsals, were excluded. Average age at the time of surgery was 51 years (range, 14 to 83 years). Pre- and postoperative angle measurement of hallux valgus- and intermetatarsal angle was assessed at between six weeks and three months postoperatively on standardized weight-bearing radiographs in dorsoplantar plane. We also identified early complications in hallux valgus surgery. An assessment and comparison of different methods of measuring metatarsal length (length of first metatarsal, ratio first to second metatarsal, Coughlin method) postoperatively was performed to identify the amount of shortening with this technique. Results: Hallux valgus angle was statistically significant reduced by an average of 18.6° (28.3° preoperatively to 9.7° postoperatively, p < 0.001), intermetatarsal angle by 7.7° (12.8° to 5.1°, p < 0.001). Measuring the length of the first metatarsal, in all three methods a statistically significant reduction of the first metatarsal length could be detected. Mean absolute shortening of 1.8 mm was measured (p < 0.001). The ratio of the first metatarsal to the second metatarsal averaged -0.03 (p = 0.02). The mean relative lengthening of the second metatarsal, using the method described by Coughlin, was 0.42 mm (from 4.51 to 4.89 mm, p < 0.001) on average. Of those three methods, the Coughlin method showed the highest correlation. 6 minor complications were observed (5%). Conclusion: In the current study we could demonstrate a significant reduction of hallux valgus angle and intermetatarsal angle with hallux valgus correction using Scarf-/Akin-Osteotomy, with a low complication rate. However, statistically significant shortening of the first metatarsal could be detected as well. Further research is required to improve and establish a hallux valgus correction technique without shortening of the first metatarsal.
