Description
Summary:Various fixation devices are available for bunion osteotomy. In this study, we evaluated the radiographic outcomes, postoperative complications, and recurrence rate in a series of hallux valgus deformities treated with various osteotomy procedures using a pin for the fixation of the osteotomy. Two-hundred forty-seven patients with hallux valgus deformity managed with a Simple, Effective, Rapid and Inexpensive (SERI) osteotomy, distal chevron osteotomy, or proximal crescentic osteotomy and K-wire fixation were included. The mean follow-up of the patients was 53.9 ± 8.9 months. Radiographic evaluations included the assessment of the Hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA), and union. Clinical evaluations included the assessment of the range of motion, pain in the first metatarsophalangeal joint, and patient satisfaction. In the last visit, the mean improvement of HVA was 23.9 ± 9.1º (P
