Abstract
Lately there has been a growing interest in the use of percutaneous surgery for the correction of hallux valgus (HV). The purpose of the present study was to systematically review the published data about this topic and establish the efficacy and safety, stressing the complication rates found on this percutaneous technique. A systematic review of the literature available in PubMed was performed. The radiological and clinical outcomes were evaluated as well as complication rates. A total of 16 studies were included and 1157 procedures reported for percutaneous HV on 1246 patients. The mean angle correction of HV deformity improved postoperatively. Reported complications vary among the studies. The highest complication rate was joint stiffness in 18.47% of cases, followed by HV recurrence and shortening of M1, both in 15.2%, material intolerance in 10.1%, osteoarthritic changes in 9.1%, infection in 7.6%, and transfer metatarsalgia in 5.4%. There is a lack of randomized control trials and insufficient comparative case control studies to assess whether one technique is more effective than another or if the percutaneous surgery is recommended rather than open surgery with respect to complications.

Abstract
Background. Hallux valgus is a complex deformity of the first ray of the foot, and a significant number of adolescents develop this deformity. More than 130 surgical procedures have been described to treat hallux valgus, but there is no compelling evidence to prefer one method over another. Minimal invasive techniques have been proposed and reported to be successful and cost-effective. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical course of adolescent patients treated with percutaneous distal metatarsal osteotomy. Methods. A retrospective study included patients who had a percutaneous hallux valgus correction during the years 2008 to 2015. The following measurements were compared before surgery up to last follow-up: AOFAS Hallux-Metatarsophalangeal-Interphalangeal questionnaire and radiological measurements (HVA, IMA, DMAA). Any postoperative complications were extracted from the medical records. Results. The procedure was performed on 32 feet (27 patients). All patients were <18 years of age. There were 10 male patients (12 feet) and 17 female patients (20 feet). Average age at surgery was 15.8 years (range = 13-18 years). Average follow-up time was 43 months (range= 24-94 months). The average AOFAS score before surgery was 66, and after surgery, at last follow-up was 96. This difference was significant (P value <.0001). Most patients were pain free after the procedure and returned to appropriate age functioning. Significant improvement was noted in all radiological criteria. Conclusions. Percutaneous distal metatarsal osteotomy is safe, reliable, and effective for the correction of mild to moderate symptomatic hallux valgus in adolescents.Levels of Evidence: Level IV.

Technique tip: Simultaneous first metatarsal lengthening and metatarsophalangeal joint fusion for failed hallux valgus surgery with transfer metatarsalgia. Foot Ankle Surg 2017; 23:e8-e11. [PMID: 28159053 DOI: 10.1016/j.fas.2015.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2015] [Revised: 11/20/2015] [Accepted: 12/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Failed hallux valgus surgery may result in residual or recurrent hallux valgus, and as well transfer metatarsalgia. The present technical tip concerns the combination of fusion of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint and lengthening of the first metatarsal (MT) through a scarf osteotomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six patients underwent the presented technique, all for the indication of failed hallux valgus surgery with shortening of the first MT and degenerative changes in the 1st MTP joint. RESULTS Follow-up at six months revealed all patients had complete healing of the osteotomy and arthrodesis sites. They were all asymptomatic and fully active, completely satisfied with the outcome. CONCLUSIONS Combined fusion of the first MTP joint and lengthening of the first MT through a scarf osteotomy results in an excellent outcome in patients with failed hallux valgus surgery with shortening of the first MT and degenerative changes in the 1st MTP joint.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) represents one of the most innovative surgical treatments of hallux valgus (HV). However, long-term outcomes still remain a matter of discussion within the orthopaedic community. The purpose of this longitudinal prospective study was to evaluate radiographic and functional outcomes in patients with mild-to-severe HV who underwent Reverdin-Isham and Akin percutaneous osteotomy, following exostosectomy and lateral release. METHODS Eighty patients with mild-to-severe symptomatic HV were treated by MIS. Clinical evaluation was assessed preoperatively, as well as at 3 and 12 months after surgery and at final follow-up of 48 months, using the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) hallux grading system. Patient satisfaction and complications were recorded. Computer-assisted measurement of antero-posterior radiographs was taken preoperatively, as well as at 3 and 12 months after surgery and at 48-month follow-up, analysing the intermetatarsal angle (IMA), the hallux valgus angle (HVA), the distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) and the tibial sesamoid position. Also, the bridging bone/callus formation was evaluated at the different radiographic follow-ups, while the articular surface congruency and the metatarsal index were calculated only preoperatively and at the last follow-up. Patient satisfaction was assessed using the visual analogue score (VAS). Statistical analysis was carried out using the paired t test. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. RESULTS The mean AOFAS score was 87.15 points at the final follow-up of 48 months, and the VAS score was 8.35/10. The post-operative radiographic assessments showed a statistically significant improvement compared with preoperative values. The mean corrections of each angular value at the last follow-up were as follows: IMA 3.90°, HVA 12.50°, DMAA 4.72° and a tibial sesamoid position of 1.10. The articular surface was congruent in 77 (96.25%) cases and incongruent only in 3 (3.75%). The complete healing of the osteotomies was achieved in all series at 3-month follow-up. However, the results obtained in the correction of the severe HV deformities were less encouraging. CONCLUSIONS Minimally invasive surgery with Reverdin-Isham and Akin percutaneous osteotomy, in combination with previous exostosectomy and subsequent lateral soft-tissue release, is a safe, effective and reliable procedure for correction of mild-to-moderate HV. However, it requires a long learning curve because of the inherent difficulty of the mixed different surgical procedures.

Abstract
Good clinical results have been reported for chevron and Mitchell osteotomies in mild hallux valgus (HV). The primary aim of the present study was to compare first metatarsal shortening after chevron and Mitchell osteotomies in HV. The secondary outcome measures were the degree of valgus correction, metatarsalgia, and patient satisfaction. A total of 84 patients were included in the present study and were treated from 2005 to 2007; 42 patients were in each group. The outcome measurements-first metatarsal length, HV angle, 1-2 intermetatarsal angle, satisfaction, and metatarsalgia-were taken preoperatively and at follow-up. The Mitchell osteotomy resulted in a significantly larger decrease in the first metatarsal length. No significant difference in transfer metatarsalgia was found. Approximately 30% of patients were mildly or not satisfied after HV surgery. Mitchell osteotomy leads to a larger decrease in the first metatarsal length. Patients with metatarsalgia performed poorly, and no significant differences in metatarsalgia were found. Preventing postoperative metatarsalgia is important for a successful outcome after HV surgery.

Abstract
Hallux abducto valgus surgery is in a constant state of evolution. Innovation is driven by surgeons pursuing the perfect procedure for any clinical scenario. The end point is to eliminate complications and produce satisfied patients. Medical device technology has helped pave the way for some recent advances in bunion surgery. The use of opening base wedge plates, locking plates for the Lapidus fusion, suture endobuttons, and staples for the Akin procedure are the focus in this review of modern techniques.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of a modified technique of Mitchell's osteotomy for treatment of moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity with the aims of reducing first metatarsal shortening and osteonecrosis. Between February 2001 and December 2007, a total of 69 patients (90 feet) underwent Mitchell's corrective osteotomy for moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity. Mean duration of follow-up after surgery was 37 months. Clinical outcome was assessed using the AOFAS Hallux Metatarsophalangeal-Interphalangeal score preoperatively; at 6 weeks, 6 months, 12 months postoperatively; and at annual follow-ups thereafter. Standard weight-bearing radiographs were obtained at each visit. Fifty-nine patients (80/90 feet, 89%) were completely satisfied, whereas 10 patients (10/90 feet, 11%) were satisfied with minor reservations owing to minor complications. Global AOFAS score improved from 43.7 (range, 20 to 77) preoperatively to 85.4 (range, 55 to 100) at final follow-up (P < .01). Eighty-eight (98%) of 90 feet were completely pain free. There was a statistically significant improvement in mean hallux valgus angle, intermetatarsal angle, and distal metatarsal articular angle at final follow-up. There were no cases of deep infection, nonunion, or osteonecrosis of first metatarsal head. None of the patients had shortening of the first metatarsal bone by more than 3 mm. In conclusion, our modified surgical technique with a combination of bony correction and adequate capsular reefing is a simple procedure to correct moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity that results in high levels of patient satisfaction, successful deformity correction, and controlled shortening of the first metatarsal, as well as minimal recurrence of deformity.).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hallux valgus and metatarsus primus varus deformities usually are the result of failure of the supporting soft tissues rather than bone deformities. Since soft-tissue procedures have been shown to only be suitable for mild deformities, first metatarsal osteotomy has become an integral part of correcting moderate to severe deformities. A soft-tissue technique referred to as the "syndesmosis procedure" by the author was evaluated for its effectiveness in correcting metatarsus primus varus in feet with hallux valgus. METHODS This is a retrospective clinical and radiographic study of six patients (11 feet) an average of 6 years and 10 months after the "syndesmosis procedure." A cerclage technique using absorbable suture (PDS) was used for the first metatarsal realignment, and its long-term maintenance depended on a syndesmosis (fibrous) bonding between the first and second metatarsal bases. RESULTS The average preoperative hallux valgus angle of 29.5 (21 to 43) degrees improved to 13.5 (-2 to 24) degrees and the average preoperative metatarsus primus varus angle of 13.6 (12 to 16) degrees improved to 5.2 (2 to 8) degrees at an average of 85.7 (33 to 128) months. All patients were satisfied with their results and were able to return to sports and wearing high-heeled shoes as desired. Complications were few and mild. Followup American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Hallux scores averaged 93 points. CONCLUSIONS This small but long-term retrospective study showed encouraging results for the correction of metatarsus primus varus deformity and a high patient satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shortening of the first metatarsal is known to occur during hallux valgus surgeries. If the shortened first ray disrupts the normal weight transfer, then transfer metatarsalgia may result. After failed conservative treatment, a common operative option is an osteotomy of the lesser metatarsals. However, osteotomies of normal metatarsals further alter the normal anatomy and can significantly shorten the forefoot. Restoration of first metatarsal length using distraction osteogenesis may more closely restore normal foot anatomy and biomechanics and subsequently treat transfer metatarsalgia. METHODS Five patients had distraction osteogenesis for a shortened first metatarsal that resulted from a previous hallux valgus surgery. A four-pin single-plane external fixator was applied to the first metatarsal to lengthen the metatarsal under the principles of distraction osteogenesis. Lengthening was complete once the affected first metatarsal was equal to the length of the adjacent second metatarsal. RESULTS The mean consolidation period was 15.8 weeks. Preoperative and postoperative length of the first metatarsal was expressed as a percentage of the length of the ipsilateral second metatarsal. The preoperative mean was 77.1% and the postoperative mean was 93.8%. All osteotomies went on to consolidation, and no grafting or secondary procedures were needed. There were no postoperative infections, malrotation, or malalignment. All patients reported reduction in their forefoot pain and returned to a nonantalgic, full weightbearing gait. CONCLUSIONS This small series depicts the potential success of distraction osteogenesis for the iatrogenically shortened first metatarsal and associated transfer metatarsalgia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metatarsalgia of the second ray is a common problem associated with disorders of the first metatarsal. It also occurs after the operative treatment of those disorders. Plantar pressure changes from alteration of the static and dynamic structure of the forefoot may be associated with this condition. This study evaluated changes in plantar forefoot pressure especially under the second metatarsal head after three operative procedures on the first ray. METHODS Each of 12 cadaver foot specimens was cyclically loaded on the servohydraulic MTS Mini Bionix test frame (MTS Systems Corp., Eden Prairie, MN) with traction on the Achilles tendon. Plantar forefoot pressure was measured by the F-scan system (Tekscan, Inc., S. Boston, MA) with the foot intact, after a first metatarsal base dorsal closing-wedge osteotomy with 5-mm base length to simulate dorsal malunion, and after 5-mm and 10-mm metatarsal shortening procedures. Paired Student t-test analysis was used to compare data for the intact foot with data after each intervention. One form of Bonferroni's correction was done to establish a new alpha level to tighten the analysis and to compensate for multiple paired Student t-tests. The significance level was calculated to be 0.016 based on an original alpha level of 0.05. RESULTS As compared with the intact foot, all three procedures on the first metatarsal resulted in significant decreases in plantar pressure under the first metatarsal head (p < 0.016). Plantar pressure under the second metatarsal head increased significantly as compared with the intact foot (p < 0.016) after all three procedures. Pressures under the third-fourth metatarsal heads increased significantly compared with the intact foot after the 5-mm and 10-mm shortenings (p < 0.016). Plantar pressure under the fifth metatarsal did not change significantly after any of the three procedures. CONCLUSIONS Dorsiflexion osteotomy and shortening of the first metatarsal are associated with significant forefoot plantar pressure changes in a cadaver model.

Abstract
First-metatarsal osteotomy is performed for an abnormal intermetatarsal angle and severe hallux valgus deformity. The metatarsal head is slid along the osteotomy and fixed with a Kirschner wire to achieve angular and linear realignment with respect to the other metatarsals. When reduction of joint subluxation is also sought, a bone wedge is removed. A mathematical model and a corresponding computer-based tool were developed for pre-operative planning of the optimum surgical solution. Standard intermetatarsal angle correction, head-to-sesamoids re-alignment, joint subluxation reduction and metatarsal length adjustment were all pursued. A standard pre-surgical dorso-plantar radiograph of the patient, with an additional metal ball for calculation of X-ray magnification, was necessary to analyse the original and final geometrical configurations. For the first time, expected bone loss and wire diameter were also considered. The angles of bone cuts and the amount of sliding along these cuts were calculated by the model according to the surgical goal. All the resulting geometrical parameters, both in the pre- and planned post- operative configuration, were provided in graphical and tabular form. In a change from former qualitative analysis of radiograms, the surgeon can now enter the operating theatre with a detailed plan of the goal to be achieved.

Abstract
This article is a retrospective study comparing the efficacy of Regnauld arthroplasty to first ray osteotomies for the treatment of hallux valgus. One hundred consecutive cases of Regnauld arthroplasties were compared with 100 consecutive first ray osteotomies. One hundred fourty-one patients were available for follow-up, and based on clinical/radiographic examinations, 72 were treated with the osteotomy protocol (group A) and 69 with Regnauld arthroplasty (group B). Age at surgery, clinical symptoms, and preoperative radiologic findings were similar for the 2 groups; there was a preponderance of female patients (90%). The average follow-up was 49 months in group A and 51 months in group B. Clinical evaluation showed in the osteotomy group a more stable correction (79% v 49%), greater pain reduction (measured in a visual analog scale from 0 = pain free to 10 = deep intolerable pain), increased residual articular excursion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (27 degrees of active dorsiflexion from neutral position v 8 degrees ), and less presence of central metatarsalgia (15% v 34%) (P <.05). The radiographic evaluation expressed more stable correction values in group A for the following parameters: joint preservation, sesamoid position, intermetatarsal angle (7 degrees v 12 degrees ), abduction angle of the hallux (14 degrees v 20 degrees ), and proximal articular set angle (8 degrees v 18 degrees ) (P <.05).

Abstract
Polyurethane foam models and cadaver specimens were used to examine the stability of the offset V first metatarsal osteotomy. Uniform osteotomies were performed in all specimens by using a specially designed jig. Specimens in the polyurethane foam model series (n = 10) varied with respect to fixation type, fixation orientation, and degree of lateral translocation of the osteotomy. All specimens were loaded to failure in an Instron testing machine (Instron, Canton, MA). The plantar wing-pin (Kirschner wire) osteotomy group showed statistically significantly greater stiffness (P =.0119) and load at failure (P =.0027) than the dorsal wing-pin group. Cadaveric offset V specimens received the same amount of capital fragment lateral translocation but had different fixation types and orientations. Using the identical protocol as the models, the cadaveric dorsal wing-screw group showed statistically significantly less displacement at failure than the plantar wing-screw, plantar wing-pin, and dorsal wing-pin groups (P =.0262). The dorsal wing-pin group with a synthetic tension band showed a statistically significant greater stiffness (P =.0054) and peak load at failure (P =.0004) compared with the dorsal wing-pin group without the tension band. The most stable offset V construct in the polyurethane foam model was the plantar wing-pin group. The preserved cadaveric specimens yielded different results. The cadaveric dorsal wing-pin group with the synthetic tension band showed superior stability compared with all other non-tension-band groups. These results indicate the importance of tension band effects provided by capsular and ligamentous structures, which are typically ignored in surgical optimization research.
