Popis: Hallux valgus is frequently associated with other alterations of the bones in the forefoot and requires the combination of more than one surgical operation. Therefore, preoperative planning is necessary. In order to facilitate this work we propose a simple template to be positioned on the radiographs, which will make it possible to rapidly evaluate the alignment of the metatarsals and the corrections necessary for re-establishing correct architecture of the forefoot.
