Popis: Category: Bunion Introduction/Purpose: Hallux Valgus is a complex deformity with several attendant components that are present to varying degrees in each patient. Historically primary attention has been paid to correction of the coronal plane deformity, but recent investigations suggest a substantial contribution to the deformity from the axial rotational abnormality of the metatarsal. While the effect of this metatarsal pronation has been demonstrated, the relative contribution of this parameter compared to other components has not been considered. This study aims to investigate the rotational aspect of the deformity and its contribution to successful radiographic correction of the deformity. Methods: A retrospective review of 100 consecutive Lapidus bunionectomy procedures was performed. There were 80 of patients and 89 feet. patients
