چکیده

Minimally invasive techniques for hallux valgus correction include arthroscopy, percutaneous and minimum incision surgery. In the last few decades, several techniques have been increasingly used. We performed a comprehensive search of CINAHL, Embase, Medline, HealthSTAR and the Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials, from inception of the database to 4 January 2010, using various combinations of the keywords terms 'Bosch', 'PDO', 'percutaneous distal osteotomy', 'SERI', 'percutaneous', 'minimal incision', 'minimum incision', 'minimally invasive', 'less invasive', 'mini-invasive', 'hallux valgus', 'bunion', 'surgery', 'arthroscopy', 'metatarsal' 'forefoot'. Only articles published in peer reviewed journals were included in this systematic review. Several new techniques are available for minimally invasive correction of the hallux valgus. Minimally invasive correction of the hallux valgus may provide better outcome for patients who would not recover well from traditional open approaches, because of decreasing recovery and rehabilitation times, as surgical exposure and deep tissue dissection are smaller and gentler to the soft tissues. Data are lacking to allow definitive conclusions on the use of these techniques for routine management of patients with hallux valgus. Given the limitations of the current case series, especially the extensive clinical heterogeneity, it is not possible to determine clear recommendations regarding the systematic use of minimally invasive surgery for hallux valgus correction, even though preliminary results are encouraging. Studies of higher levels of evidence, concentrating on large adequately powered randomized trials, should be conducted to help answer these questions.

Hallux valgus (bunions).

INTRODUCTION: Hallux valgus (bunions) are prominent and often inflamed metatarsal heads and overlying bursae. They are associated with valgus deviation of the great toe which moves towards the second toe. Hallux valgus is found in at least 2% of children aged 9 to 10 years, and almost half of adults, with greater prevalence in women. METHODS AND OUTCOMES: We conducted a systematic review and ai...

Minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy for mild-to-moderate hallux valgus deformity.

Minimally invasive surgery has recently been introduced for foot and ankle surgery, and hallux valgus surgery is no exception. The purpose of our study was to analyze the early results and to present our experience of minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy in correcting mild-to-moderate hallux valgus deformities. Between September 2005 and December 2006, 31 consecutive patients (47 feet...

A case-controlled study of minimally invasive vs open hallux valgus surgery

Methodology This is a consecutive case series performed between 2009 and 2012. This includes the learning curve for minimally invasive surgery. All cases were performed by a single surgeon at two different sites, one centre where minimally invasive surgery is available and the other where it is not. The standard procedure in both centres is a modified Chevron osteotomy. Regardless of whether th...

The Endolog system for moderate-to-severe hallux valgus.

PURPOSE To report the midterm outcome of the Endolog system for correction of moderate-to-severe hallux valgus. METHODS 23 women and 2 men (33 feet) aged 35 to 80 (mean, 52) years underwent minimally invasive surgery for moderate (n=25) and severe (n=8) hallux valgus using the Endolog system. The hallux valgus angle (HVA), the intermetatarsal angle (IMA), and the proximal articular set angle ...
