Simultaneous Surgical Correction for Severe Hallux Valgus Deformity Secondary to Lessor Brachymetatarsia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Progression to severe hallux valgus following the second and third brachymetatarsia is a rare deformity. This condition is a challenging problem because the entire correction of hallux valgus deformity and metatarsal length discrepancy is necessary to prevent a recurrence of deformity. Metatarsal length discrepancy between the first and second ray in early adolescent patient can be aggravated with the course of time and result in a failed hallux valgus correction. Because there are few references in the literature on the operative procedures for this type of combined deformity, we report a case of 11-year-old boy treated with lesser metatarsals lengthening and the first metatarsal corrective osteotomy.

Simultaneous Decompression of Hallux Rigidus and Correction of Hallux Valgus Deformity with an Oblique Osteotomy: A Case Report
Hallux rigidus and hallux valgus are challenging clinical entities and represent a particularly difficult dilemma when presenting simultaneously. There is no consensus among surgeons as to a surgical correction for the concomitant treatment of both diagnoses. In this article, we present a case involving a young, active patient with hallux valgus and hallux rigidus who underwent surgical correct...
متن کاملThe Proximal Opening Wedge Osteotomy for the Correction of Hallux Valgus Deformity
Many surgical procedures exist to correct metatarsus primus varus associated with hallux valgus deformity. Among these procedures are various first metatarsal osteotomies. Both distal and proximal osteotomies have been described to correct these deformities with the latter typically used for the more severe deformity. The goal of the operative procedure is correction of the intermetatarsal and ...
متن کاملA Physiological Soft Tissue Procedure for Hallux Valgus Deformity Correction
Hallux valgus is a soft tissue condition of normal bones deviating from their normal alignment due to failure of their stabilizing ligaments. Affected bones are victims rather than culprits. Osteotomy of normal bones to compensate a soft tissue problem can compromise biomechanics of the all-important first ray for function and complicate the matter. To patients, hallux valgus deformity is mainl...
متن کاملArthrodesis of the hindfoot for valgus deformity. An entirely medial approach.
Correction of valgus deformity of the hindfoot using a medial approach for a triple fusion has only recently been described for patients with tight lateral soft tissues which would be compromised using the traditional lateral approach. We present a series of eight patients with fixed valgus deformity of the hindfoot who had correction by hindfoot fusion using this approach. In addition, we furt...
متن کاملProximal metatarsal osteotomy and distal soft tissue reconstruction as treatment for hallux valgus deformity.
The correction of a hallux valgus deformity with a proximal 1(st) metatarsal osteotomy and distal soft tissue repair is achieved with a three-incision technique. A lateral soft tissue release and reconstruction at the first metatarsophalangeal joint releases contracted structures including the lateral capsule, the transverse inter-metatarsal ligament and the conjoint adductor tendon. Rarely is ...
