Purpose: To evaluate and analyze the incidence, clinical features, cause and surgical outcomes of iatrogenic hallux varus deformity after hallux valgus surgery. Materials and Methods: Twenty-six Hallux varus deformities after hallux valgus surgery were evaluated. Clinical tolerability, patient's satisfaction and the main causative factor for varus deformity were evaluated. Radiologically, we measured the 1st intermetatarsal angle and hallux valgus angle on pre- & postoperatively. Results: 10 cases of 26 varus deformities were clinically intolerable. The patients complaint of mainly cosmetic and shoe fitting problems rather than pain and the main cause of deformities were over-correction of 1 st intermetatarsal angle. Radiologically, the average 1st intermetatarsal angle was 2.4 degrees and the hallux valgus angle was -9.2 degrees. After varus correction surgery, the average follow up were 17 months and the average 1st intermetatarsal angle was 2.3 degrees and the hallux valgus angle was 2.7 degrees. The average score of AOFAS Hallux Metatarsophalangeal -Interphalangeal Scale was 91 points. Conclusion: The hallux varus deformity after hallux valgus surgery came from mainly overcorrection of 1 st intermetatarsal angle. The management composed of just observation, tendon transfer and fusion, and each method could get satifactory results with appropriate indication.

Purpose: We assessed the treatment result of the distal chevron osteotomy in the patients with moderate to severe hallux valgus. Materials and Methods: In a total of 28 cases of hallux valgus in 20 patients, underwent distal chevron osteotomy between July 1999 and February 2001, were enrolled in this study. 21 cases were moderate and 7 cases were severe. The preoperative average hallux valgus angle and 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle of the two groups were $31.5^{\circ}$, $15.8^{\circ}$ in moderate cases and $44.1^{\circ}$, $17.3^{\circ}$ in severe cases, respectively. Radiologic evaluation was done preoperatively, postoperatively and on the final follow-up visit using weight-bearing radiographic imaging to determine the hallux valgus angle and 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle. Results: Radiographic evaluation revealed hallux valgus angle and 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle in moderate cases to be $13.0^{\circ}$, $11.3^{\circ}$ (postoperatively and in severe cases $15.6^{\circ}$, $10.9^{\circ}C$, postoperatively. On final follow up, the results were $14.5^{\circ}$, $11.6^{\circ}$ in moderate cases and $18.3^{\circ}$, $11.9^{\circ}$ in severe cases, respectively. Conclusion: Distal chevron osteotomy can be usefully applied to the treatment of moderate to severe hallux valgus.

Purpose: We try to retrospectively evaluated the amount of dorsal angulation angle of the first metatarsal commonly occurring as the complication of proximal dome osteotomy for hallux valgus. Materials and Methods: Between January 2004 and March 2004, 34 patients who underwent proximal dome osteotomy for moderate to severe hallux valgus. Two of 34 patients were male, and thirty-two were female. The average age was 57.6 years. We measured and compared hallux valgus angle, 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle, dorsal angulation angle of 1st metatarsal on preoperative, postoperative, postoperative 3 weeks', postoperative 3 months' X-ray. Results: Osteotomy sites were completely united on plane X-ray in all cases. The hallux valgus angle averaged $41.2^{\circ}$ ($30{\sim}60^{\circ}$) at preoperative, $4.3^{\circ}$ ($-10{\sim}20^{\circ}$) at postoperative, $5.5^{\circ}$ ($-1{\sim}20^{\circ}$) at 3 weeks after operation, $7.8^{\circ}$ ($-2{\sim}20^{\circ}$) at 3 months after operation. The 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle averaged $17.1^{\circ}$ ($12{\sim}24^{\circ}$) at preoperative, $6.3^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}13^{\circ}$) at postoperative, $7.2^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}15^{\circ}$) at 3 weeks after operation, $8.7^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}18^{\circ}$) at 3 months after operation. The dorsal angulation angle averaged $0.4^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}3^{\circ}$) at postoperative, $1.6^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}7^{\circ}$) at 3 weeks after operation, $2.1^{\circ}$ ($0{\sim}8^{\circ}$) at 3 months after operation. There were no statistically correlation between increase of dorsal angulation angle of the distal segment of the first metatarsal and increase of hallux valgus angle or 1st-2nd intermetatarsal angle. Conclusion: Our results shows that the dorsal angulation of distal fragment occurring after the proximal dome osteotomy in the treatment of hallux valgus may be minimized with meticulous surgery and patient's education.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of the parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy which is performed the Scarf osteotomy parallel to the shaft of the 1st metatarsal bone for hallux valgus deformities. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 43 patients who had been treated by the parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus deformities between January 2006 and March 2011. We evaluated the results after this Scarf osteotomy with respect American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores, radiologic results by comparing intermetatarsal angle between 1stand 2nd metatarsal bones and hallux valgus angle. Results: We checked out the pre-operational and post-operational radiologic evaluation of intermetatarsal angle and hallux valgus angle between 1st and 2nd metatarsal bones. The mean AOFAS scores improved from 63.5 to 88.5. At final follow up, The hallux valgus angle improved from $31.4^{\circ}$ (16-52) to $9.0^{\circ}$ (3-13) and the intermetatarsal angle improved from $18.6^{\circ}$ (12-30) to $9.3^{\circ}$ (6-12) postoperatively. There was no case of major complications included recurrence of valgus deformity, correction or fixation failure and stress fractures. Conclusion: Our results suggest the our parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy produces improved AOFAS scores, and effective correction of hallux valgus deformities. Our Scarf technique of osteotomy which is performed in parallel to the metatarsal bone minimizes the need for skill while more reliable and obtaining good correction and avoids associated complications.

Purpose: To evaluate the radiographic characteristics of the tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis with hallux valgus deformity and report the clinical results of the operative treatment. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of 20 patients, 22 feet who had been operated for non-traumatic tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis with hallux valgus (TMT group) and control group of hallux valgus patients without tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis (26 patients, 28 feet) from April 2004 to July 2011. Radiographic characteristics were compared between the groups, using hallux valgus angle, $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ intermetatarsal angle, metatarsal length ratio, metatarsus adductus angle, talonavicular coverage angle, talus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle, calcaneal pitch angle and medial cuneiform height. Pre- and postoperative difference of $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal declination angle and distance between the $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal head were evaluated. The clinical results were evaluated by American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scale and visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: Metatarsal length ratio was significantly larger in TMT group (p<0.001). Metatarsus adductus angle, talonavicular coverage angle, talus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle on lateral radiograph, calcaneal pitch angle and medial cuneiform height were different from control group (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.001, p=0.010, p=0.006). Postoperative declination of the $2^{nd}$ metatarsal and distance between the $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal head were increased (p=0.009, p=0.001). The AOFAS and VAS score were improved (p<0.001, p<0.001). Conclusion: Non-traumatic osteoarthritis of the tarsometatarsal joints seems to be associated with long 2nd metatarsal length, metatarsus adductus and flatfoot deformity. Spur excision may be successful to relieve symptoms when the arthritis was diagnosed in early stage.

Purpose: The purpose of our report was to evaluate the result of operative treatment of hallux valgus in old age patients. Materials and Methods: We studied about the clinical & radiologic results of the 31 patients over 55 years old, who had operative treatment of hallux valgus. Clinical evaluation, such as pain, activity limitation, footwear requirement, 1st metatarsophalangeal joint motion, and callosity, was done using AOFAS scale and preoperative and postoperative radiologic parameters, such as hallux valgus angle, intermetatarsal angle, tibial sesamoid position, 1st metatarsal shortening, were evaluated by conventional methods. Results: Objectively, according to AOFAS, the score improved from average of 57.8 to 71.5 postoperatively. The range of motion of first metatarsophalangeal joint was decreased from average of 60.7 to 56.8 degrees. Radiologically, the hallux valgus angle improved from average of 35 to 6.5 degrees and the first intermetatarsal angle improved from average of 14.2 to 4.4 degrees. The position of sesamoid was collected from an average of grade 3.6 to grade 2.2. Conclusion: The combination of proximal metatarsal osteotomy, distal soft tissue procedure and Akin osteotomy may yield rather satisfactory clinacal result in severe elderly hallux valgus patients with massive degenerative change and poor soft tissue condition.

Purpose: To treat hallux valgus in old age patients with chevron metatarsal osteotomy and to see the subsequent clinical and radiological outcomes. Materials and Methods: 23 cases of 18 hallux valgus patients of age 60 years or older who received proximal or distal corrective osteotomy from April 2007 to August 2009 and were followed up for at least 1 year were included in the study. The mean age at operation was 65 years (range, 60~81 years), and the mean follow-up period was 2 years and 6 months (range, 1 year~3 years 6 months). Clinical outcome was assessed with the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, complications, satisfaction rate, as well as measurements and comparison of pre- and postoperative hallux valgus angles, the 1st~2nd intermetatarsal angle, and the position of hallucal medial sesamoid bone. Results: The AOFAS score was improved from preoperative average of 35.1 (range, 13-47) to average 85.1 at last follow-up (range, 75-100). Patients were satisfied about the operation in 21 cases (91.3%). Preoperative hallux valgus angle was $31.7^{\circ}$ on average (range, $19.1^{\circ}-48.9^{\circ}$), and $4.9^{\circ}$ on average at last follow-up (range, $0.3^{\circ}-21.2^{\circ}$). The 1st~2nd intermetatarsal angle was $14.4^{\circ}$on average (range, $8.7^{\circ}-25.7^{\circ}$) and $3.1^{\circ}$ on average at last follow-up (range, $0.6^{\circ}-7.5^{\circ}$). The hallucal medial sesamoid bone position was improved from preoperative average 3.5 (range, 3-4) to postoperative average 1.0 (range, 0-2). Conclusion: Proximal and distal metatarsal osteotomy treatment yielded good clinical and radiological outcomes in old age hallux valgus patients.

Purpose: To study the relationship of the 1st to 2nd intermetatarsal angle(1-2 IMA) between the intra-operative and weight bearing postoperative anterior-posterior(AP) radiography, and evaluate the intra-operative predictability for the postoperative 1-2 IMA after proximal metatarsal osteotomy(PMO) in the hallux valgus deformity. Materials and Methods: 20 cases of moderate to severe hallux valgus patients were included in this study. After the oblique PMO(Ludloff procedure) was performed and the osteotomy site was fixed temporarily, the AP view was taken intra-operatively. About 10 weeks after surgery, postoperative weight bearing AP view was taken. The pre -. intra -, and postoperative 1-2 IMAs were compared and ana lysed statistically. Results: The 1-2 IMAs of the weight bearing preoperative, non-weight bearing intra-operative and weight bearing postoperative AP view were $15.9^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ},\;4.7^{\circ}{\pm}2.1^{\circ}$, and $6.8^{\circ}{\pm}2.5^{\circ}$ (Mean${\pm}$SD) respectively. The postoperative 1-2 IMA was greater than intra-operative measurement by $2.1^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$ (range; $-1^{\circ}$ to $6^{\circ}$) which was stastistically significant(p<0.05). To get less than $9^{\circ}$ postoperatively as an average normal, intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be within $3.8^{\circ}$ to $5.2^{\circ}$ (95% confidence interval), and intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be within $3.4^{\circ}{\pm}$to $5.4^{\circ}$(95% confidence interval) to get more than $6^{\circ}$ difference between preoperative and postoperative 1-2 IMA, which is regarded as more than average correction by the distal metatarsal osteotomy. Conclusion: In hallux valgus surgery, it should be considered that intra-operative 1-2 IMA was less than the postoperative. To achieve postoperative 1-2 IMA less than $9^{\circ}$ and more than correction angle of $6^{\circ}$, it is suggested that the intra-operative 1-2 IMA should be measured less than about $5^{\circ}$.

Purpose: The authors intended to analyze the operative results of moderate hallux valgus with proximal chevron metatarsal osteotomy and distal soft tissue procedure. Materials and Methods: Seventy feet of fifty-seven patients were followed for more than 1 year after the proximal chevron metatarsal osteotomy. The mean age was 47.2 years, and the mean follow up period was 2 years and 3 months. Clinically preoperative and postoperative AOFAS MP-IP scale and satisfaction after the surgery were analyzed. Radiologically hallux valgus angle, hallux valgus interphalangeal angle, the intermetatarsal angle and sesamoid position before and after the operation were analyzed. Results: Additional Akin osteotomy was performed 48 out of 70 feet. Clinically AOFAS MP-IP scale was increased from 60.4 points preoperatively to 89.8 points postoperatively. Ninety-four percents of the patients were satisfied with the results. Radiologically hallux valgus angle was decreased from $34.8^{\circ}$ preoperatively to $12.8^{\circ}$ postoperatively. The intermetatarsal angle was decreased from $15.7^{\circ}$ preoperatively to $8.0^{\circ}$ postoperatively. Hallux valgus interphalangeal angle was increased from $7.4^{\circ}$ preoperatively to $9.8^{\circ}$ postoperatively. There were 3 recurrences, 1 hallux varus and 3 minor wound infections. There were no nonunion or malunion of the 1st metatarsal. Conclusion: Proximal chevron metatarsal osteotomy with distal soft tissue procedure and additional Akin osteotomy appears to be safe and satisfactory procedure.
