RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the outcomes of traditional surgery (TS) with those of a 3-dimensional model-assisted surgery (3DS) in hallux valgus (HV) surgery with distal chevron osteotomy. METHODS: This randomized controlled trial study included 30 patients randomly grouped as TS and 3DS. In the 3DS group, the surgery was simulated on the 3D model before surgery, and that simulation was used as a guide during surgery. Various parameters, such as angles of the HV, intermetatarsal (IM), and distal metatarsal articular, were measured pre-surgery and during the final follow-up. The extent of lateralization of the first metatarsal (FM) head and plantar displacement of the FM head were assessed. Metrics like the duration of the osteotomy+lateralization+K wire fixation, tourniquet time, and fluoroscopy usage were recorded. All assessments were conducted independently and blindly. Patients remained unaware of their group allocation and the randomization procedure. RESULTS: Both groups showed no statistical differences in gender, operated side, age, or follow-up duration. For instance, in the 3DS group (n=15, age: 44.6 ± 9.6 years, male/female: 14/1, side right/left: 11/4, follow-up duration: 29.4 ± 8.7 months) and TS group (n=15, age: 44.8 ± 9.6 years, male/female: 13/2, side right/left: 10/5, follow-up duration: 28.8 ± 8.4 months). The 3DS group, however, showed better metrics with osteotomy+lateralization+K wire fixation, tourniquet duration, and number of fluoroscopies at 12.4 ± 1.2 minutes, 41.5 ± 3.8 minutes, 2.5 ± 0.6 times. In contrast, the TS group recorded 17.1 ± 1.5 minutes, 50.8 ± 3.4 minutes, and 3.3 ± 0.8 times, respectively (P <.001 for all). The 3DS group also achieved a more significant restoration of the IM angle (P < .001). Postsurgery, the 3DS group demonstrated superior outcomes in FM head lateralization, FM shortening, and plantar displacement (P <.001, P <.001 and P = .006, respectively, for all metrics). Only 1 patient in the 3DS group experienced a pin-tract infection, which was treated with wound care and oral antibiotics. CONCLUSION: Simulating surgery on a 3D model and using it as a guide significantly enhances surgical outcomes. Benefits include reduced operation time, tourniquet duration, decreased fluoroscopy usage, and improved first-ray alignment. The 3DS method also ensures better lateralization of the first metatarsal head and correction of the IM. Although 3D model-assisted HV chevron osteotomy surgery provides ideal deformity correction, it does not significantly affect postoperative functional outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for hallux valgus (HV) has gained popularity. However, adopting this technique faces the challenges of a pronounced learning curve. This study aimed to address these challenges by developing and validating an innovative simulation model and training program, targeting enhanced proficiency in HV MIS. METHODS: A training program and a high-fidelity simulation model for HV MIS were designed based on experts' recommendations. Four foot and ankle surgeons without experience in MIS formed the novice group and took the program that encompassed six-session instructional lessons, hands-on practice on simulated models, and immediate feedback. The program concluded with a cadaveric surgery. Four foot and ankle experienced MIS surgeons formed the expert group and underwent the same procedure with one simulated model. Participants underwent blind assessment, including Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills (OSATS), surgical time, and radiograph usage. RESULTS: Expert evaluation of the simulation model indicated high satisfaction with anatomical representation, handling properties, and utility as a training tool. The expert group consistently outperformed novices at the initial assessment across all outcomes, demonstrating OSATS scores of 24 points (range, 23 to 25) versus 15.5 (range, 12 to 17), median surgical time of 22.75 minutes (range, 12 to 27) versus 48.75 minutes (range, 38 to 60), and median radiograph usage of 70 (range, 53 to 102) versus 232.5 (range, 112 to 280). DISCUSSION: Novices exhibited a significant improvement in OSATS scores from the fifth session onward (P = 0.01), reaching the desired performance of 20 points. Performance at the final training with the simulated model did not differ from cadaveric surgery outcomes for all parameters. CONCLUSION: This study validated a simulation model and training program, allowing nonexperienced HV MIS foot and ankle surgeons to enhance their surgical proficiency and effectively complete a substantial portion of the learning curve at the fifth session, and this performance was successfully transferred to a cadaver model.

BACKGROUND: Hallux valgus (lateral angulation of the great toe towards the lesser toes, commonly known as bunions) presents in 23% to 35% of the population. This condition leads to poor balance and increases the risk of falling, adding to the difficulty in fitting into shoes and pain. Conservative (non-surgical) interventions treating pain rather than curing deformity are usually first-line treatments. When surgery is indicated, the overall best surgical procedure is an ever-evolving topic of discussion. OBJECTIVES: To assess the benefits and harms of different types of surgery compared with placebo or sham surgery, no treatment, non-surgical treatments and other surgical interventions for adults with hallux valgus. SEARCH METHODS: We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase and trial registries to 20 April 2023. We did not apply any language or publication restrictions. SELECTION CRITERIA: We included randomised controlled trials evaluating surgical interventions for treating hallux valgus compared to placebo surgery or sham surgery, no treatment, non-surgical treatment or other surgical interventions. The major outcomes were pain, function, quality of life, participant global assessment of treatment success, reoperation (treatment failure), adverse events and serious adverse events. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two review authors independently selected studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias and the certainty of evidence using GRADE. MAIN RESULTS: We included 25 studies involving 1597 participants with hallux valgus. All studies included adults and most were women. One study compared surgery (V-shaped osteotomy) with no treatment and with non-surgical treatment. Fifteen studies compared different surgical techniques, including a V-shaped osteotomy (Chevron osteotomy), to other types of osteotomy. Nine studies compared different simple osteotomy techniques to each other or to a mid-shaft Z-shaped osteotomy (Scarf osteotomy). Most trials were susceptible to bias: in particular, selection (80%), performance (88%), detection (96%) and selective reporting (64%) biases. Surgery versus no treatment Surgery may result in a clinically important reduction in pain. At 12 months, mean pain was 39 points (0 to 100 visual analogue scale, 100 = worst pain) in the no treatment group and 21 points in the surgery group (mean difference (MD) -18.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) -26.14 to -9.86; 1 study, 140 participants; low-certainty evidence). Evidence was downgraded for bias due to lack of blinding and imprecision. Surgery may result in a slight increase in function. At 12 months, mean function was 66 points (0 to 100 American Orthopedics Foot and Ankle Scale (AOFAS), 100 = best function) in the no treatment group and 75 points in the surgery group (MD 9.00, 95% CI 5.16 to 12.84; 1 study, 140 participants; low-certainty evidence). Evidence was downgraded for bias due to lack of blinding and imprecision. Surgery may result in little to no difference in quality of life. At 12 months, mean quality of life (0 to 100 on 15-dimension scale, 100 = higher quality of life) was 93 points in both groups (MD 0, 95% CI -2.12 to 2.12; 1 study, 140 participants; low-certainty evidence). Evidence was downgraded for bias due to lack of blinding and imprecision. Surgery may result in a slight increase in participant global assessment of treatment success. At 12 months, mean participant global assessment of treatment success was 61 points (0 to 100 visual analogue scale, 100 = completely satisfied) in the no treatment group and 80 points in the surgery group (MD 19.00, 95% CI 8.11 to 29.89; 1 study, 140 participants; low-certainty evidence). Evidence was downgraded for bias due to lack of blinding and imprecision. Surgery may have little effect on reoperation (relative effect was not estimable), adverse events (risk ratio (RR) 8.75, 95% CI 0.48 to 159.53; 1 study, 140 participants; very low-certainty evidence), and serious adverse events (relative effect was not estimable), but we are uncertain. Surgery versus non-surgical treatment Surgery may result in a clinically important reduction in pain; a slight increase in function and participant global assessment of treatment success; and little to no difference in quality of life (1 study, 140 participants; low-certainty evidence). We are uncertain about the effect on reoperation, adverse events and serious adverse events (1 study, 140 participants; very low-certainty evidence). Complex versus simple osteotomies Complex osteotomies probably result in little to no difference in pain compared with simple osteotomies (7 studies, 414 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Complex osteotomies may increase reoperation (7 studies, 461 participants; low-certainty evidence), and may result in little to no difference in participant global assessment of treatment success (8 studies, 462 participants; low-certainty evidence) and serious adverse events (12 studies; data not pooled; low-certainty evidence). We are uncertain about the effect of complex osteotomies on function and adverse events (very low-certainty evidence). No study reported quality of life. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: There were no trials comparing surgery to placebo or sham. Surgery may result in a clinically important reduction in pain when compared to no treatment or non-surgical treatment. Surgery may also result in a slight increase in function and participant global assessment of treatment success compared to no treatment or non-surgical treatment. There may be little to no difference in quality of life between surgery and no treatment or non-surgical treatment. We are uncertain about the effect of surgery on reoperation (treatment failure), adverse events or serious adverse events, when compared to no treatment or non-surgical treatment. Complex and simple osteotomies demonstrated similar results for pain. Complex osteotomies may increase reoperation (treatment failure) and may result in little to no difference in participant global assessment of treatment success and serious adverse events compared to simple osteotomies. We are uncertain about the effect of complex osteotomies on function, quality of life and adverse events.

BACKGROUND: Patients with hallux valgus are known to alter lower limb joint kinematics during gait. However, little information is available about gait changes following hallux valgus surgery. We aimed to longitudinally investigate lower limb kinematic changes at the mid and terminal stances of gait after hallux valgus surgery. METHODS: This prospective observational study included 11 female patients (17 feet), who underwent first metatarsal osteotomy. Gait analyses were performed preoperatively and 1- and 2-year postoperatively using a three-dimensional motion capture system. Toe-out angle, ankle, knee, and hip joint angles during gait were calculated from the recorded data. The spatiotemporal parameters and these angles at the mid and terminal stances of gait were statistically compared between preoperative and postoperative periods. FINDINGS: All spatiotemporal parameters remained unchanged postoperatively. The toe-out angle was significantly greater at 1- and 2-year postoperatively. The ankle pronation angle, the knee abduction angle, and the hip adduction angle at the mid and terminal stances of gait were smaller postoperatively compared to the preoperative. These angular changes showed a similar trend at 1 and 2 years postoperatively. However, the postoperative changes of the sagittal joint angles were relatively small. INTERPRETATION: Hallux valgus surgery can affect the toe-out angle and the lower limb coronal kinematics at the mid and terminal stances of gait in patients with hallux valgus. However, surgical correction of hallux valgus deformity did not directly improve the gait characteristics in patients with hallux valgus.

OBJECTIVE: Chevron osteotomy offers near-excellent clinical results and adequate stability at lower shift percentages, among the techniques used to correct hallux valgus deformity. This cadaveric study aimed to compare the Chevron osteotomy with the reverse offset-L osteotomy, which may provide a greater surface area and a more stable geometry to withstand higher cantilever forces at higher shift percentages. METHODS: Metatarsal bones obtained from 20 human cadavers with similar bone quality were divided into two groups: Chevron osteotomy was applied to the 1st group and reverse offset-L osteotomy was applied to the 2nd group. The load-to-failure, displacement in the y-axis, and total displacement values of both groups were compared statistically. Furthermore, bone densities were compared between the groups with computed tomography imaging. RESULTS: When outliers in both groups were excluded, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of reverse offset-L (143 ± 42 vs. 204 ± 51.2 N, p = 0.02) in terms of failure load. The groups were similar in terms of displacement on the y-axis and total displacement values. Bone densities were similar. CONCLUSION: The reverse offset-L osteotomy has been shown to withstand greater loads before failure compared to the standard Chevron osteotomy. This significant difference in load-to-failure may enable reverse offset-L to provide reliable stability in osteotomies performed in advanced HV cases requiring higher shifts.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of small incision external articular minimally invasive osteotomy and traditional Chevron osteotomy in the treatment of hallux valgus. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 58 patients (58 feet) with hallux valgus who were admitted between April 2019 and June 2022 and met the selection criteria. Among them, 28 cases were treated with small incision external articular minimally invasive osteotomy (minimally invasive group), and 30 cases were treated with traditional Chevron osteotomy (traditional group). There was no significant difference in baseline data such as age, gender, disease duration, Mann classification, and preoperative inter metatarsal angle (IMA), hallux valgus angle (HVA), distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA), forefoot width, tibial sesamoid position (TSP) score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, psychological score (SF-12 MCS score) and physiological score (SF-12 PCS score) of short-form 12 health survey scale, and range of motion (ROM) of metatarsophalangeal joint between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, weight-bearing walking time, fracture healing time, and incidence of complications were recorded and compared between the two groups; as well as the changes of imaging indexes at last follow-up, and the clinical function score and ROM of metatarsophalangeal joint before operation, at 6 weeks after operation, and at last follow-up. Results: All patients were followed up 11-31 months, with an average of 22 months. The incision length and intraoperative blood loss in the minimally invasive group were significantly less than those in the traditional group ( P<0.05), and the intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and operation time in the minimally invasive group were significantly more than those in the traditional group ( P<0.05); but no significant difference was found in weight-bearing walking time and fracture healing time between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was 1 case of skin injury in the minimally invasive group and 3 cases of poor incision healing in the traditional group; all patients had good healing at the osteotomy site, and no complication such as infection, nerve injury, or metatarsal head necrosis occurred. At last follow-up, the imaging indexes of the two groups significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). The changes of DMAA and TSP score in the minimally invasive group were significantly better than those in the traditional group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the changes of IMA, HVA, and forefoot width between the two groups ( P>0.05). The clinical scores and ROM of metatarsophalangeal joint significantly improved in the two groups at 6 weeks after operation and at last follow-up when compared with preoperative ones ( P<0.05), and the indicators in the minimally invasive group were significantly better than those in the traditional group ( P<0.05). Conclusion: Compared with traditional Chevron osteotomy, small incision external articular minimally invasive osteotomy can effectively improve HVA, IMA, and forefoot width, correct foot deformities, and has less trauma. It can better correct the first metatarsal pronation deformity and restore the anatomical position of the sesamoid bone, resulting in better effectiveness.

This systematic review and meta-analysis addresses the effects of minimally invasive surgical techniques, specifically the Reverdin Isham osteotomy, on functional and radiological outcomes in patients with moderate Hallux Valgus, a common foot deformity. The review included randomized and non-randomized controlled trials, as well as case reports, assessing the osteotomy in adults with moderate to severe Hallux Valgus. Searches were conducted in electronic databases such as MEDLINE and Web of Science up until July 2023, and the Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tool was used to assess the risk of bias. Meta-analytical analyses employed a random-effects model with small-sample correction, presenting results as standardized mean differences and mean differences with 95% confidence intervals. Seven studies involving 554 patients and 643 operated feet were included, showing significant improvements in AOFAS scores (an average improvement of 36 points from 28.61 to 45.16) and reductions in radiological angles such as the distal metatarsal angle and hallux valgus angle post-surgery (IMA improved by - 3.07° from - 4.68 to - 1.46, DMAA by - 6.12° from - 9.52 to - 2.71, and HVangle by - 15.27° from - 17.98 to - 12.57). Despite these positive outcomes, most studies exhibited risks of bias and other methodological limitations, impacting the generalizability of the results. Overall, the findings highlight the efficacy of the Reverdin Isham osteotomy in improving both functional and radiological parameters in patients with moderate Hallux Valgus, although further research is warranted to solidify these results. No specific funding was received for this study, and the protocol was registered on PROSPERO with the number CRD-42023445886.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that frequently causes forefoot deformities. Arthrodesis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint is a common surgery for severe hallux valgus. However, joint-preserving surgery can maintain the mobility of the joint. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy (DCMO) for correcting hallux valgus deformity associated with RA. Methods: Between August 2000 and December 2018, 18 consecutive patients with rheumatoid forefoot deformities (24 feet) underwent DCMO for hallux valgus with/without lesser toe surgery. Radiological evaluations were conducted, assessing the hallux valgus angle, the intermetatarsal angle between the first and second metatarsals, and the Sharp/van der Heijde score for erosion and joint space narrowing. Clinical outcomes were quantified using a visual analog scale for pain and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society forefoot scores to measure function and alignment. Results: The mean hallux valgus angle decreased from 38.0° (range, 25°-65°) preoperatively to 3.5° (range, 0°-17°) at the final follow-up (p < 0.05). The mean intermetatarsal angle decreased from 14.9° (range, 5°-22°) preoperatively to 4.3° (range, 2°-11°) at the final follow-up. (p < 0.05). Regarding the Sharp/van der Heijde score, the mean erosion score (0-10) showed no significant change, decreasing from 3.83 (range, 0-6) preoperatively to 3.54 (range, 0-4) at the final follow-up (p = 0.12). Recurrent hallux valgus was observed in 1 patient and postoperative hallux varus deformity was observed in 2 feet. Spontaneous fusion of the metatarsophalangeal joint developed in 1 case. Conclusions: DCMO resulted in satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes for correcting RA-associated hallux valgus deformity.

BACKGROUND: Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP; OMIM #135100) is an ultrarare genetic disorder characterised by congenital bilateral hallux valgus (CBHV), intermittent soft tissue swellings and progressive heterotopic ossification. We report a three-month-old girl with great toe abnormalities similar to FOP, in whom comprehensive clinical workup and genetic investigations illustrates an alternative diagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION: A three-month-old girl presented with CBHV. The antenatal period was unremarkable, she was born by spontaneous vaginal delivery with an uneventful subsequent course, except for maternal concern of her bent toes which received reassurance from several health professionals. Her mother's persisting concerns were explored via the internet and social media leading her to request referral to an expert bone centre for consideration of FOP. On examination, she was thriving, there was no dysmorphism, subcutaneous lumps, skeletal or extra-skeletal deformity except for shortened great toes with lateral deviation of the proximal and distal phalanges. FOP was a feasible diagnosis, for which CBHV is highlighted as an early sign. A cautionary potential diagnosis of FOP was counselled, including advice to defer intramuscular immunisations until genetic results available. Genetic investigation was undertaken through rapid whole genomic sequencing (WGS), with analysis of data from a skeletal dysplasia gene panel, which demonstrated no ACVR1variants. The only finding was a heterozygous variant of unknown significance in BMPR1B (c1460T>A, p.(Val487Asp)), which encodes a bone morphogenic receptor involved in brachydactyly syndromes A1, A2 and D and acromesomelic dysplasia 3 (only the latter being an autosomal recessive condition). CONCLUSION: This report highlights that CBHV serves as a vital diagnostic indicator of FOP and affected infants should be considered and investigated for FOP, including precautionary management whilst awaiting genetic studies. The second educational aspect is that CBHV may not represent a generalised skeletal disorder, or one much less significant than FOP. Receptor-ligand BMP and Activins mediated interactions are instrumental in the intricate embryology of the great toe. Recognition of non-FOP conditions caused by alterations in different genes are likely to increase with new genomic technology and large gene panels, enhancing understanding of bone signaling pathways.

PURPOSE: To date, the surgical treatment of severe hallux valgus deformity remains challenging despite the various methods presented. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of minimally invasive distal chevron Akin osteotomies (d-MICA) and minimally invasive proximal chevron Akin osteotomies (p-MICA) in correcting severe hallux valgus deformities. METHODS: This prospective follow-up study included patients randomly assigned to undergo p-MICA or d-MICA for hallux valgus deformities with a preoperative hallux valgus angle (HVA) ≥ 40° and/or a first to second intermetatarsal angle (IMA) ≥ 16°. After a minimum follow-up period of two years, we compared various clinico-radiographic parameters of patients whose HVA exceeded 15° at the final follow-up. RESULTS: In the p-MICA and d-MICA groups, seven of 40 cases (17.5%) and 16 of 41 cases (39.0%), respectively, exhibited HVA > 15° at the final follow-up (P = 0.048). The preoperative parameters showed no significant differences. However, at the first weight-bearing assessment, the HVA, IMA, and relative second metatarsal length were significantly smaller, and the distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) was greater in the p-MICA group (all P < 0.05) compared with the d-MICA group. Postoperatively, both groups exhibited significant decreases in HVA and IMA at the final follow-up (P < 0.001 for all parameters). The p-MICA group showed no significant changes in DMAA and the relative length of the second metatarsal (P = 0.253 and 0.185, respectively). However, the d-MICA group showed a significant decrease in DMAA (P < 0.001) and an increase in the relative length of the second metatarsal at the final follow-up (P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: p-MICA and d-MICA procedures demonstrated effective correction potential for severe hallux valgus deformities; however, the d-MICA procedure exhibited a notably higher incidence of unsatisfactory correction at the final follow-up than p-MICA. Therefore, d-MICA may be less predictable in achieving successful outcomes than p-MICA in treating severe hallux valgus deformities.

In this technical report study, we describe technique for performing the osteotomy and screw passage in minimally invasive fourth-generation hallux valgus surgery with transverse and akin extra-articular metaphyseal osteotomy (META) using a 3D-printed patient-specific surgical instrumentation guide. In an effort to minimize the learning curve and address the variability associated with technical corrections and screw placement, we have initiated the creation of personalized patient-specific instrumentation guides using 3D printing. Our hypothesis is that this approach will enhance safety, precision, decrease surgical time, and reduce exposure to radiation. Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion.

PURPOSE: Arthroscopy of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (1 MTP) has gained increasing attention in the last two decades. Despite numerous studies describing the surgical technique, only a few provide clinical or radiological outcome data. This systematic review aimed to analyze studies presenting objectively measurable clinical outcomes of patients who underwent 1 MTP arthroscopy as the primary procedure, categorizing results by indication pathology. METHODS: Following PRISMA guidelines, PubMed and Cochrane databases were searched for studies reporting outcomes of primary 1 MTP arthroscopy, regardless of underlying pathology. The selected articles were thoroughly assessed to extract data regarding the demographics of included patients, pathology, preoperative and postoperative clinical and radiological outcomes, complications, and reinterventions. RESULTS: Fourteen articles, involving 405 patients (419 halluces), were included. Common indications were hallux valgus and hallux rigidus. Notably, Hallux Valgus Angle improved from 28.9° to 12.7°, and Intermetatarsal Angle improved from 13.8° to 9.2°, where reported. In hallux rigidus patients, range of motion increased from 25.15° to 71.3° post-surgery. Temporary or permanent sensory loss occurred in 3% of treated halluces, with 4.28% requiring reoperation. CONCLUSIONS: Evidence on 1 MTP arthroscopy as the primary procedure is limited. It is most effective for hallux rigidus, while in hallux valgus cases, it can achieve satisfactory angular corrections but has a relatively high recurrence and reoperation rate. Although this technique is generally safe, further research should compare it with traditional surgical approaches to provide comprehensive insights. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

Background and Aim: Ultrasound popliteal sciatic nerve block (UPSNB) is commonly performed in foot and ankle surgery. This study aims to assess the use of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone as adjuvants in UPSNB for hallux valgus (HV) surgery, comparing their efficacy in producing motor and sensory block and controlling postoperative pain. The adverse event rate was also evaluated. Methods: This mono-centric retrospective study included 62 adult patients undergoing HV surgery: 30 patients received lidocaine 2% 200 mg, ropivacaine 0.5% 50 mg and dexamethasone 4 mg (Group 1), whereas 32 patients received lidocaine 2% 200 mg, ropivacaine 0.5% 50 mg, and dexmedetomidine 1 mcg/Kg (Group 2). At first, the visual analogue scale (VAS) was evaluated after 48 hours. The other outcomes were time to motor block regression, evaluation of the first analgesic drug intake, analgesic effect, adverse effects (hemodynamic disorders, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV)) and patient satisfaction. The continuous data were analyzed with student's t-test and the continuous one with χ2. Statistical significance was set at a p-value lower than 0.05. Results: No significant difference was found in VAS after 48 hours (4.5 ± 1.6 vs 4.7 ± 1.7, p = 0.621) to motor block regression (18.9 ± 6.0 vs 18.7 ± 6, p = 0.922). The number of patients that took their first analgesic drug in the first 48 h (p = 0.947 at 6 hours; p = 0.421 at 12 hours; p = 0.122 at 24 hours and p = 0.333 at 48 hours) were not significant. A low and similar incidence of intraoperative hemodynamic disorders was recorded in both groups (hypotension p = 0.593; bradycardia p = 0.881). Neither PONV nor other complication was found. Patients in Group 1 reported a lower degree of interference with sleep (p = 0.001), less interference with daily activities (P = 0.002) and with the affective sphere (P = 0.015) along with a more satisfactory postoperative pain management (p < 0.001) as compared to Group 2. Conclusion: No significant differences were observed in the duration of motor and sensory blockade between patients in both groups. Additionally, both groups showed good pain control with a low rate of adverse effects, even if there was no clinical difference between the groups. However, patients who received dexamethasone reported experiencing less interference with their sleep, daily activities and overall emotional well-being, and overall pain control.

OBJECTIVE: Clinically, it has been found that patients undergoing knee replacement have a high incidence of concomitant hallux valgus. In this study, we analyzed whether patients with osteoarthritis who underwent surgery and those patient who did not have surgery had an increased risk of hallux valgus by Mendelian randomization and performed reverse causal analysis. DESIGN: Genomewide association study (GWAS) data for osteoarthritis, categorized by knee arthritis with joint replacement, knee arthritis without joint replacement, hip arthritis with joint replacement, and hip arthritis without joint replacement.And acquired hallux valgus were downloaded for Mendelian randomized studies. MR analysis was performed using inverse variance-weighted (IVW), weighted median, and MR-Egger methods. MR-egger regression, MR pleiotropic residuals and outliers (MR-presso), and Cochran's Q statistical methods were used to evaluate heterogeneity and pleiotropy. RESULTS: The IVW results indicate that, compared to healthy individuals, patients who meet the criteria for knee osteoarthritis joint replacement surgery have a significantly higher risk of acquired hallux valgus. There were no significant causal relationships found for the remaining results. No significant heterogeneity or multiplicity was observed in all the Mr analyses. CONCLUSION: Our study supports the increased risk of acquired hallux valgus in patients eligible for knee replacement. There is necessary for clinicians to be concerned about the hallux valgus status of patients undergoing knee arthroplasty.

BACKGROUND: Hallux valgus (HV) is a very common deformity worldwide. Most of the surgical techniques used in the treatment of HV only correct these deformities in two planes, that is sagittal and transverse planes. The importance of the first metatarsal pronation as an etiological factor of hallux valgus is validated by numerous authors and it is usually unaddressed. Few surgical techniques have focused on the correction of rotational deformity of the hallux valgus. We aim to first report a detailed technique and a case series using the Distal Rotational Metatarsal Osteotomy (DROMO) surgical technique, which is less invasive and can address the pronation deformation. METHODS: The inclusion period was 6 months finishing in April 2021. The study analyzed the following x-ray parameters: preoperative and postoperative intermetatarsal angle (IMA), preoperative and postoperative hallux valgus angle (HVA), preoperative and postoperative coronal rotation of the first metatarsal according Hardy and Clapham's classification as described by Kim et al., preoperative and postoperative shape of the first metatarsal head as described by Ono et al. RESULTS: 33 patients matched our inclusion and exclusion criteria. Most patients underwent the surgery for the left foot (n = 18), compared to the right foot (n = 15). We found statistically significant differences between preoperative and postoperative IMA (p < 0.001), preoperative and postoperative HVA (p < 0.001). Preoperative and postoperative coronal rotation of the first metatarsal as classified by Hardy and Clapham was significantly different (p < 0.001), as well as preoperative and postoperative shape of the first metatarsal head (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: DROMO can correct the metatarsal rotation through minimal invasive surgery. From our perspective, DROMO technique should be another alternative for HV correction technique which in time can be associated as a local anesthetic technique, DROMO results are attractive for an ambulatory procedure.

BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) such as minimally invasive chevron osteotomy and Akin osteotomy (MICA) has become popular in the treatment of hallux valgus. However, how to correct three-dimensional deformities in hallux valgus effectively and simply in MICA is still difficult. Special equipment is required in MICA as has been reported before. It is meaningful and necessary to reduce the reliance on special equipment in MICA. METHODS: From January 2021 to July 2022, patients with mild or moderate hallux valgus were treated with a joy-stick assistant three-dimensional modified technique (Joy-stick 3D technique) of MIS. VAS, AOFAS Hallux MTP-IP scores, hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA), and distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) were measured pre- and postoperatively at the last follow-up of at least 6 months. Scores and radiologic angles were compared using paired sample t-test. RESULTS: A total of 36 cases were included. HVA, IMA, and DMAA were (22.3 ± 6.1)°, (14.0 ± 3.2)°, and (8.9 ± 3.2)° preoperatively, and decreased to (7.0 ± 1.8)°, (3.7 ± 1.0)°, and (3.3 ± 1.1)° postoperatively. VAS decreased from 4.3 ± 1.7 to 0.7 ± 0.7. AOFAS Hallux MTP-IP scores improved from 68.6 ± 7.6 to 92.9 ± 6.1. Comparing mild and moderate cases, though HVA, IMA, and DMAA were significantly different preoperatively, the angles became statistically similar after surgery. CONCLUSIONS: A joy-stick assistant three-dimensional modified technique is proposed to control the three-dimensional position of the metatarsal head and to reduce dependence on special tools. Mild and moderate hallux valgus deformities are effectively corrected using Joy-stick 3D technique.

PURPOSE: Third and fourth-generation minimal invasive osteotomies (MIO) for the treatment of hallux valgus (HV) have become popular procedures worldwide with promising results due to the improvement in the fixation method. The tricortical cannulated screw placement remains a complex procedure that is technically challenging and requires a long skill learning curve with high radiation exposure mainly in the form of intensifier shots (IS) required for the MIO fixation. This study aims to compare the number of X-ray IS required using three different techniques for the cannulated guide placement. METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional observational and comparative study was conducted to assess the number of X-rays IS required for correct cannulated screw guide placement using three different techniques: traditional perforator, the drill and joystick, and K-wire first techniques. RESULTS: A total of 53 MIS procedures from thirty-one patients in two different hospitals were included. IS X-rays were 155.1 ± 29.7 in the traditional technique (n = 14), 143.0 ± 43.2 in the drill and joystick technique (n = 22), and 85 ± 18.7 in the K-wires first technique (n = 17), p = < 0.001 using one-way ANOVA. CONCLUSIONS: The K-wire first technique statistically significantly decreases X-ray IS numbers p ≤ 0.001. There were no statistically significant differences between the traditional (after osteotomy K-wire placement) and the drill and joystick techniques (p = 0.36).

BACKGROUND: Nonopioid management of postsurgical pain remains a major unmet need. Few studies have evaluated transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily member 1 agonists for analgesia after surgery. This study examines intraoperative vocacapsaicin, a novel prodrug of the transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily member 1 agonist capsaicin, in a validated model of postsurgical pain. METHODS: This was a triple-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging trial in patients undergoing bunionectomy. Patients were randomized 1:1:1:1 to surgical site administration of 14 ml of placebo or one of three vocacapsaicin concentrations: 0.30, 0.15, or 0.05 mg/ml. The prespecified primary endpoint was the area-under-the-curve of the numerical rating scale pain score at rest through 96 h for the 0.30 mg/ml group. Prespecified ordered, secondary endpoints for the 0.30 mg/ml group included the percentage of patients who did not require opioids from 0 to 96 h, total opioid consumption through 96 h, and the area-under-the-curve of the numerical rating scale pain score for the first week. RESULTS: The 147 patients were randomized. During the first 96 h, vocacapsaicin (0.30 mg/ml) reduced pain at rest by 33% versus placebo (primary endpoint, 95% CI [10%, 52%], effect size [Cohen's d] = 0.61, P = 0.005). Of patients receiving vocacapsaicin (0.30 mg/ml), 26% did not require postoperative opioids for analgesia (P = 0.025) versus 5% of patients receiving placebo. Vocacapsaicin (0.30 mg/ml) reduced opioid consumption over the first 96 h by 50% versus placebo (95% CI [26%, 67%], effect size = 0.76, P = 0.002). Vocacapsaicin (0.30 mg/ml) reduced pain over the first week by 37% versus placebo (95% CI [12%, 57%], effect size = 0.62, P = 0.004). The treatment effect persisted for at least 2 weeks. All study endpoints showed an administered concentration-versus-response relationship. Vocacapsaicin was well tolerated with no differences between groups in any safety parameter. CONCLUSIONS: A single, local administration of vocacapsaicin during surgery reduced pain and opioid consumption for at least 96 h after surgery compared to control.

PURPOSE: The minimally invasive Chevron-Akin (MICA) is considered the third generation of minimally invasive hallux valgus (HV) surgery, and its original description included fixation of the Akin osteotomy with a screw. The aim of this study is to evaluate a series of patients undergoing HV correction using the MICA technique without screw fixation of the Akin osteotomy. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 58 consecutive patients who underwent surgical correction for HV between August 2018 and March 2020. A total of 69 feet were evaluated with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Clinical outcomes such as pain (VAS), function (AOFAS), range of movement, criteria personal satisfaction and complications were evaluated. RESULTS: The AOFAS score (mean ± standard deviation) significantly improved from 57.0 ± 8.6 preoperatively to 93.9 ± 8.7 postoperatively (p < .001) with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. The VAS score improved from 6.0 ± 1.8 preoperatively to 0.6 ± 1.4 at 2-year follow-up (p < .001), and the hallux valgus angle reduced from 39.7 ± 6.9 to 8.9 ± 9.0 (p < .001). The majority of patients (95.6%) reported the result as excellent or good, and the most common complication was the need to remove the screw (7.2%). CONCLUSIONS: The use of MICA without Akin osteotomy fixation resulted in successful correction of hallux valgus with improvements in clinical and radiographic parameters. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, case series.
