Abstract
The treatment of hallux abductovalgus continues to evolve as surgeons better understand first ray biomechanical pathology. Many authors have advocated the use of the 1st tarsometatarsal joint arthrodesis for correction of moderate to severe hallux abductovalgus deformities and those with hypermobility of the 1st ray. There continues to be debate over the best surgical technique, fixation construct, and post operative protocol for the 1st tarsometatarsal joint fusion. We describe a technique with a unique hardware construct that is reproducible and allows for excellent deformity correction and pain relief while minimizing associated complications with this procedure.
