This study aimed to determine whether hallux pronation influences the proximal to distal phalangeal articular angle (PDPAA) and evaluate its relationship with postoperative recurrence. We included 94 hallux valgus (HV) patients who underwent distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy (DCMO) alone (DCMO-only group, n = 15) and DCMO with Akin osteotomy (DCMO + Akin group, n = 79). Preoperative additional toe radiographs were taken under supination stress to position the pronated toe as a true anteroposterior orientation. The mean follow-up period was 12.9 months. The PDPAA on weightbearing radiograph did not significantly differ from the PDPAA corrected by supination stress (5.0 ± 7.0 vs. 4.7 ± 6.4 degrees, p = 0.820). The DCMO-only group showed a higher recurrence rate than the DCMO + Akin group (33.3 vs. 7.6%, p = 0.014). In the DCMO-only group, those with recurrence had significantly higher preoperative PDPAA values than those without recurrence (7.6 ± 5.9 vs. -0.2 ± 3.0 degrees; respectively, p = 0.013). In conclusion, the PDPAA was not significantly influenced by the hallux pronation in patients with HV. For HV patients with a large preoperative PDPAA, additional Akin osteotomy should be considered to prevent recurrence.

Assessing the AIR classification reliability for estimating pronation of the first metatarsal.

Background: Hallux valgus (HV) is a multiplanar deformity and surgical treatment is often guided by two-dimensional radiographic parameters. This study assessed the reliability and accuracy of the AIR classification(The first metatarsal head's lateral edge can be delineated as angular (type A), round (type R), or intermediate (type I) through visual inspection or circle measurements on weight-bearing radiographs.)commonly used in clinical settings to categorize the shape of the lateral edge of the first metatarsal head, against measurements from weight-bearing computed tomography (WBCT).

Hallux valgus (HV) deformity, which is characterized by lateral deviation and pronation of the metatarsophalangeal joint, demonstrates complex 3-dimensional challenges, thus prompting the development of various surgical approaches, including traditional Chevron osteotomy (CO) and novel triplanar Chevron osteotomy (TCO). The objective of this study is to determine TCO at various tilt angles by employing 3D printing for ex vivo osteotomy angle simulations and computer modeling to correct deformities across 3 planes, thus aiming to enhance surgical outcomes by preserving or even increasing the length of the first metatarsal and thereby overcoming the limitations of CO. In this study, we collected and analyzed non-weight-bearing CT data from 55 patients (61 feet) with mild-to-moderate hallux valgus, plantar callosities and metatarsalgia from June 2019 to June 2020.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines differences in foot deformities, specifically Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity (PCFD) with and without Hallux Valgus (HV), using weightbearing computed tomography in patients aged 18 and over.
  • Findings show that PCFD with HV exhibits greater angles and pronation at key joints compared to PCFD without HV, indicating significant structural variations.
  • The results highlight important associations between HV deformity and specific foot angles, suggesting a need for targeted clinical assessment and treatment based on these deformities.

Revisiting the radiological signs for the first metatarsal pronation assessment.

Bone Jt Open

November 2024

Department of Statistics & Actuarial Science, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

Aims: The first metatarsal pronation deformity of hallux valgus feet is widely recognized. However, its assessment relies mostly on 3D standing CT scans. Two radiological signs, the first metatarsal round head (RH) and inferior tuberosity position (ITP), have been described, but are seldom used to aid in diagnosis.
