Contribution Ratio of Metatarsal Osteotomy and First Tarsometatarsal Joint Reduction in Moderate to Severe Hallux Valgus Correction.

Hallux valgus is a common foot and ankle disease, for which numerous surgical procedures were introduced. So, understanding the mechanism of deformity reduction is important to select the proper method. Intermetatarsal angle (IMA) determines the severity of hallux valgus, which is influenced by the translated metatarsal head and the reduction of the first tarsometatarsal joint.
