- The study aimed to investigate the shapes of the first metatarsal-cuneiform (MTC) joint in feet with hallux valgus (HV) deformity and how these shapes relate to angles associated with HV.
- Researchers analyzed the shapes in a sample of 315 feet and found that the oblique shape was most common, often linked with more severe forms of HV.
- The results indicated that the shape of the first MTC joint significantly influences the hallux valgus angle (HVA), while the intermetatarsal angle (IMA) did not show a statistically significant relationship with the joint shape.
To examine the influence of the configuration of the first and second metatarsal (MT) bones on the development of hallux valgus deformity. To determine the extent to which the difference in the lengths of the first and second MT bones, measured distal to the Maestro line, contribute to the severity of the hallux valgus (HV) deformity defined by the size of the hallux valgus angle (HVA) and inter-metatarsal angle (IMA). On a sample of 319 feet with HV deformity the difference of measured lengths R = d (I MT) - d (II MT) was calculated The influence of differences (R) on the values of IMA and HVA as well as on the severity of deformities according to the formed groups was investigated.

The purpose of this study was to present the long-term results of the newly modified SPOTT procedure developed by our senior author and compare it with the standard SPOTT technique in equinovarus foot deformity due to CP.
Method: Our retrospective cohort study included patients with spastic foot deformity due to CP treated with the standard or modified SPOTT technique.
This report is based on the review of 230 victims of multiple injuries, treated during 8 months period. There were 156 casualties with dominant Chest and Abdominal injuries. In the immediate treatment of these patients we applied modification of an original scheme by Schweiberer.
