Background: Hallux valgus (HV) is commonly treated with proximal or distal first metatarsal osteotomy. Despite good correction, these procedures have inherent risks such as malunion, nonunion, metatarsal shortening, loss of fixation, and avascular necrosis. Suture button fixation has been used for HV treatment.

The objective of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence of hallux valgus (HV) in the general population by conducting a review and meta-analysis of existing studies. Published articles on the incidence of HV were systematically searched and evaluated on reputable medical databases such as PubMed. The keywords "the prevalence of hallux valgus and/or bunions"were used to create the search syntax on the various databases.

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has gained popularity for hallux valgus correction in the adult population. The advantage of reproducibility of this procedure can aid in lower operating room costs, quicker recovery, and fewer complications. The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare preoperative versus postoperative foot widths in patients that underwent MIS hallux valgus correction.

The use of staples has been shown to be a reasonable fixation technique to achieve stability of a first MTPJ arthrodesis. Although it has been shown to be a weaker construct than crossed screws or plate and screw combinations, their ease of insertion, low profile, and stability make them a desirable choice for first MTPJ arthrodesis fixation. However, because of this relative weakness, the question remains whether immediate weightbearing when using staples is advisable.

Background: Kawasaki disease (KD), also known as mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome, is an acute, self-limiting vasculitis of unknown aetiology that mainly involves the medium and small arteries and can lead to serious cardiovascular complications, with a 25% incidence of coronary artery aneurysms. Periton-Sillar abscesses are a rare symptom of KD and is easily misdiagnosed at its early stages.
Case Summary: A 5-year-old boy who presented to a community hospital with a 3-d fever, difficulty in opening his mouth, and neck pain and was originally treated for throat infection without improvement.

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an autosomal dominant rare disease characterized by foot deformities and concomitant heterotopic ossifications. Theoretically, in the absence of early diagnosis and medication, the patient's outcome will be poor. The patients are usually diagnosed at an early age.

Background: We compared the radiological and clinical outcomes of mild to moderate and severe hallux valgus (HV) treated with minimally invasive distal metatarsal transverse osteotomy (MITO) performed by a single surgeon.
Methods: Eighty-four patients who underwent MITO between May 2018 and March 2020 were recruited and followed for at least 24 months. The severe group was defined as having a preoperative hallux valgus angle (HVA) >40 degrees or preoperative first-to-second intermetatarsal angle (1-2 IMA) >16 degrees; the mild to moderate group was defined as having an HVA <40 degrees and a 1-2 IMA <16 degrees.

Background: The purpose of this systematic review is to examine the learning curve associated with minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for the treatment of hallux valgus (HV).
Methods: A systematic review was performed using PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, CINAHL and MEDLINE databases from database inception to February 16th, 2023. Inclusion criteria was articles with level of evidence I-III, any outcomes associated with learning curve, minimally invasive surgery, and diagnosis of hallux valgus' in adult patients.

Background: Evolving evidence and improved instrumentation have led to increasing importance of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) surgery in the treatment of hallux valgus deformity. This study aims to investigate the current trends of the practice of MIS hallux valgus surgery in the Asia Pacific region.
Method: A survey was sent via email to 30 fellowship-trained foot and ankle surgeons in 11 Asia Pacific countries, all registered with their respective national orthopaedic societies.

Background: Minimally invasive chevron Akin osteotomy (MICA) has become increasingly common and is compatible with the traditional open approaches for hallux valgus correction. However, it is impeded by concerns regarding the steep learning curve, increased radiation exposure and some specific complications. No standardized method for identifying a learning curve exists.

Background: Among the numerous surgical interventions for correcting hallux valgus deformity in skeletally immature patients, hemiepiphysiodesis is a simple technique with a low complication rate yet its effectiveness remains unclear. This systematic review evaluates hemiepiphysiodesis of the first metatarsal for treating juvenile hallux valgus (JHV) deformities with respect to radiological outcomes, postoperative clinical outcomes, and postoperative complications.
Methods: EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) database were searched from inception to September 15th, 2022, for studies investigating hemiepephysiodesis for JHV and its effect on clinical and radiological outcomes.

Background: Previous simulated weight-bearing CT (WBCT) studies classifying first metatarsal (M1) pronation suggested a high prevalence of M1 hyper-pronation in hallux valgus (HV). These findings have prompted a marked increase in M1 supination in HV surgical correction. No subsequent study confirms these M1 pronation values, and two recent WBCT investigations suggest lower normative M1 pronation values.

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes. Elderly diabetic patients are a high prevalence of diabetic foot ulcers, and their high recurrence, disability, and mortality rates impose a heavy economic burden on families and society. This paper reports a case of an elderly patient with a diabetic foot ulcer who was admitted in April 2007 and discharged after recovery from comprehensive diabetic foot treatment.

Background: The morphology of foot joints is widely accepted as a significant factor in the development of various foot disorders. Nevertheless, the role of the first tarsometatarsal joint (TMT1) morphology in hallux valgus (HV) remains unclear, and its impact on TMT1 instability has not been fully explored. This study aimed to investigate the TMT1 morphology and its potential correlation with HV and TMT1 instability.
