چکیده
Osteotomy of the neck of the first metatarsal bone has been practised for many years in the treatment of hallux valgus. Although various techniques have been described (Hohmann 1948 ; Mitchell, Fleming, Allen, Glenney and Sanford 1958), we are aware of only one detailed report of results (Mitchell et a!. 1958). This paper presents the results of osteotomy in eighty-two feet, and attempts to define its place in the treatment of hallux valgus.
