Abstract

Severe hallux valgus is a challenge to treat. If the basal osteotomy is a well known surgery for severe deformity, the chevron osteotomy is usually used in mild to moderate deformity. With a accurent fixation the chevron can also be used in severe deformity. Both techniques can be performed percutaneously and offer reliable techniques.

Keywords: Distal chevron; Hallux valgus; MICA; Percutaneous; Proximal basal osteotomy.
