Abstrakt: Hallux valgus (HV) is a common condition in which the first ray is deformed, leading to pain and altered joint mechanics. A variety of radiographic measurements are used to evaluate HV. Little is known about measurements used in the assessment of HV on lateral radiographs compared to anteroposterior (AP) radiographs. The primary aim of this study was to correlate lateral measurements with AP measurements pre and postoperatively. The secondary aim was to correlate lateral measurements with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) pre and postoperatively. One hundred eighty-three patients were initially enrolled in the study. Two fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists independently performed all measurements. On AP radiographs, hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) were measured. On lateral radiographs, sagittal IMA, Meary's angle, and sagittal first ray length were measured. Measurements were recorded at baseline and 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were used for inter-reader analysis. ICCs were moderate to very strong among readers. There were significant but weak correlations between lateral measurements and AP measurements. For at least 1 timepoint, IMA correlated with sagittal IMA, sagittal first ray length, and Meary's angle. HVA only correlated with sagittal first ray length. These correlations were all weak in magnitude. There were a few significant but weak correlations between the measurements in the study and PROMs. This study showed that sagittal IMA, sagittal first ray length, and Meary's angle are not predictive of AP measurements or patient outcomes and are not useful in preoperative assessment of HV.
