Distal first metatarsal osteotomy and adductor release as a treatment of hallux valgus
Abstract
A combined bony and soft tissue procedure is reported as a treatment of hallux valgus. Satisfactory subjective and objective results were obtained at an average follow-up of 49.6 months. There was a 21% incidence of avascular necrosis of the first metatarsal head, four out of the 38 patients (10.5%) having developed a varus deformity at follow-up.
