Minimally Invasive Distal Metatarsal Osteotomy for Mild-to-Moderate Hallux Valgus
نویسنده
چکیده
Hallux valgus occurs almost exclusively in shoe – wearing societies. Coughlin and Thompson (2) noting the extremely high prevalence of bunions in American women in the fourth, fifth or sixth decade of life, implicated constricting footwear as a cause of hallux valgus. Likewise, in Japan, Kato and Watanabe (3) noted that the prevalence of hallux valgus in women increased dramatically following the introduction of high – fashion footwear after World War II.
