ABSTRACT
Brachymetatarsia is caused by premature closure of the physis and is characterized by a short metatarsal. Additional foot conditions may exist in patients presenting with brachymetatarsia, such as hallux valgus (HV). A retrospective study was performed to evaluate the prevalence of HV and brachymetatarsia in the ipsilateral foot. Ninety-seven feet with congenital brachymetatarsia were reviewed in a multi-study cohort of 66 patients who underwent surgical correction between January 2005 and August 2020 at a single institution. The group was comprised of 61 females and 5 males, with a mean age of 27 years. HV deformities were verified with standardized anteroposterior radiographs. HV was present in 29 of 97 feet for a prevalence of 30% in the feet with brachymetatarsia. Our results demonstrate a 30% prevalence of HV associated with brachymetatarsia. This information is helpful for foot and ankle surgeons managing brachymetatarsia to determine appropriate conservative or surgical management of this condition.
