Popis: The Austin procedure, a distal metaphyseal "V" osteotomy for the management of hallux valgus was evaluated in several distinct patient groups. The results of the procedure were found to be both reproducible and predictable. Medial capsular reefing in an attempt to maintain the intermetatarsal angle reduction or hallux alignment does not appear to enhance the postoperative results.
