The Mitchell distal metatarsal osteotomy for hallux valgus.

چکیده
Seventy-two Mitchell distal metatarsal osteotomies for hallux valgus performed over a period of 10 years have been reviewed. Sixty-six (92 per cent) were graded as excellent or good. Retrospective radiographic analysis of 29 of these cases showed that the operation had reduced the intermetatarsal angles to within normal anatomical limits. No patient experienced a worsening of symptoms as a result of the operation.

They are associated with valgus deviation of the great toe which moves towards the second toe. Hallux valgus is found in at least 2% of children aged 9 to 10 years, and almost half of adults, with greater prevalence in women. METHODS AND OUTCOMES: We conducted a systematic review and ai...
متن کاملDistal metatarsal osteotomy for hallux varus following surgery for hallux valgus.
We reviewed the outcome of distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy without tendon transfer in 19 consecutive patients (19 feet) with a hallux varus deformity following surgery for hallux valgus. All patients underwent distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy with medial displacement and a medial closing wedge osteotomy along with a medial capsular release. The mean hallux valgus angle improved from -11....
متن کاملComparative study between Wilson and Mitchell metatarsal osteotomies for the treatment of hallux valgus in adults.
Although Mitchell osteotomy and Wilson osteotomy are two popular methods for the treatment of hallux valgus, there are no studies directly comparing their results. Fifty-six patients (73 feet) who underwent a Wilson osteotomy and 30 patients (34 feet) who had a Mitchell osteotomy were followed for a mean period of 33.7 and 38.9 months, respectively. The results were comparable in terms of hallu...
متن کاملMinimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy for mild-to-moderate hallux valgus deformity.
Minimally invasive surgery has recently been introduced for foot and ankle surgery, and hallux valgus surgery is no exception. The purpose of our study was to analyze the early results and to present our experience of minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy in correcting mild-to-moderate hallux valgus deformities. Between September 2005 and December 2006, 31 consecutive patients (47 feet...
متن کاملA Follow-up Study of Eighty-two Feet
Osteotomy of the neck of the first metatarsal bone has been practised for many years in the treatment of hallux valgus. Although various techniques have been described (Hohmann 1948 ; Mitchell, Fleming, Allen, Glenney and Sanford 1958), we are aware of only one detailed report of results (Mitchell et a!. 1958). This paper presents the results of osteotomy in eighty-two feet, and attempts to def...
