Halluks Valgus Deformitesinin Tanımlanmasında Tripod İndeksin Etkinliği : Retrospektif Bir Çalışma

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and reliability Tripod Index (TI) in defining hallux valgus (HV) deformity accompanying deformities evaluating treatment outcome. Material Methods: Fifty fifty two patients were included who underwent Chevron (group 1) proximal dome 2) osteotomy, respectively. Preoperative postoperative angle (HVA), intermetatarsal (IMA), Meary (MA), talar declination (TDA), calcaneal tilt (CIA), head opening (THU) TI measured. Then, relationship between other angular variables was evaluated. Results: There no significant difference mean age, body mass index (BMI), side gender both groups. values HVA IMA differed groups pre- postoperatively. preoperative TDA, THU MA significantly higher group 2. CIA 1. value a decrease all parameters 2 HVA, postoperatively strong correlation IMA, THU, CIA, TDA MA, moderate with Conclusion: can provide partial data on transverse sagittal plane first metatarsal HV single radiograph. Additionally, it be guiding measurement need for shift osteotomy pes planovalgus HV. However, insufficient define complex alone.
