Bunion Surgery: Should You Perform A Lateral Release?
ثبت نشده
چکیده
McBride popularized the lateral release in the earlier part of the century as an isolated soft tissue procedure to correct hallux valgus. Since the procedure did not correct the structural deformity, surgeons performed the procedure with fibular sesamoidectomy and/or adductor transfer in an attempt to maximize the soft tissue correction. However, it became apparent that overzealous work within the interspace may promote a muscular imbalance, resulting in hallux varus.

Diagnosis and treatment of forefoot disorders. Section 4. Tailor's bunion.
Tailor’s bunion (also called bunionette) involves deformity of the fifth metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ), much like a bunion that occurs medially. Although tailor’s bunion typically involves deformity with lateral prominence of the fifth metatarsal head, both lateral and plantar clinical pathology will be discussed in this document. Numerous factors can contribute to the development of a tailor...
متن کاملGeometric analysis of indications for minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy in treatment of hallux valgus
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy (MIDMO) is to be indicated for all patients with angles of IMA <20° and HV <40°, but many authors doubt whether this procedure is capable of correcting all types of hallux valgus deformities. The aims of this study were to perform a geometric analysis of MIDMO indications and to show which preoperative radiological parameters are necessa...

551 Hallux abducto valgus is one of the most common deformities encountered in podiatric medical practice. Hallux abducto valgus, commonly referred to as a bunion, may have two components: a rigid or structural component and a dynamic or flexible one. One component usually predominates over the other. The dynamic or flexible component is reducible clinically or after lateral soft-tissue release...
متن کاملUse of the Z osteotomy for Tailor bunionectomy.
The authors present a unique use of the Z osteotomy in the fifth metatarsal for correction of Tailor bunion. The rotational capabilities of the Z osteotomy are exploited to provide correction of fifth metatarsal lateral bowing and to decrease intermetatarsal angles. The osteotomy is inherently stable, and the design facilitates internal fixation.
متن کاملRevisiting the tailor's bunion and adductovarus deformity of the fifth digit.
Correction of the fifth digit deformity and Tailor's Bunion can be rewarding as well as challenging for a foot and ankle surgeon. Immense care should be taken when performing these reconstructive surgical procedure, especially to avoid and minimize complication rates and mainly to prevent neurovascular damage. Appropriate surgical procedure selection for the fifth digit deformity and Tailor's B...
