Percutaneous Hallux Valgus Correction: Modified Reverdin-Isham Osteotomy, Preliminary Results.

In our series, functional and clinical results of percutaneous osteotomy without osteosynthesis were comparable to other percutaneous and conventional techniques, both in clinical and radiological findings. High level of patient's satisfaction and improvement on pain-related symptoms are even better referred to traditional techniques. Modified Reverdin-Isham osteotomy technique differs from the others for translation of metatarsal head after osteotomy; we do not correct PASA angles, but we can obtain more HV and IM correction and include some severe HV. Our results suggest that translation of metatarsal head could give higher HV angle correction.
