Surgical Precision of MICA and Reverdin-Isham Using 3D-Printed Guides: A Cadaveric Study.

: Hallux valgus is a common foot deformity that requires surgical correction to restore proper alignment. Precision in the osteotomies performed during these surgeries is critical to avoid complications and improve outcomes. However, variability in surgeon experience can negatively affect precision.

Zigzag tenotomy of the extensor hallucis longus through minimally invasive surgery in cadaveric specimens: description of a new technique.

Background: Lengthening of the extensor hallucis longus (EHL) is performed to address various forefoot pathologies. The retraction of this tendon is strongly associated with the Hallux Abductus Valgus (HAV) deformity. Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) lengthening of the EHL is carried out in combination with other surgical techniques for HAV bone realignment.

Hallux Dorsal Curvature of the Distal Phalanx and Its Possible Implications for the Dorsal Osteophyte.

The dorsal osteophyte on the distal phalanx of the first toe (hallux) is a reactive bony protrusion that may be associated with pathologies such as onychocryptosis or pincer nail. This study aims to describe and analyze the correlation between three novel measurements-dorsal osteophyte height (HDO), distal phalangeal hyperextension (DPHA), and distal phalangeal curvature (DCDP)-and to evaluate the impact of minimally invasive surgery on the dorsal osteophyte using fluoroscopic data. A total of 125 fluoroscopic images were analyzed.

Radiological and functional outcomes of Reverdin Isham osteotomy in moderate Hallux Valgus: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis addresses the effects of minimally invasive surgical techniques, specifically the Reverdin Isham osteotomy, on functional and radiological outcomes in patients with moderate Hallux Valgus, a common foot deformity. The review included randomized and non-randomized controlled trials, as well as case reports, assessing the osteotomy in adults with moderate to severe Hallux Valgus. Searches were conducted in electronic databases such as MEDLINE and Web of Science up until July 2023, and the Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tool was used to assess the risk of bias.
