Abstract
Percutaneous foot surgery is a surgical method of treating various bone and soft-tissue disorders of the foot. In hallux valgus pathology, it is called minimal incision surgery, and is another method to treat this disorder. As in all surgical techniques, there are complications in minimal incision hallux valgus surgery. In general, in percutaneous surgery, there have been reports of recurrence on the hallux valgus deformity or development of the opposite deformity (hallux varus), malunion, nonunion, head metatarsal necrosis, clawed hallux, and transfer keratotic lesions that cause pain, thermal injuries, and other complications. We describe some of the most frequent complications in minimally invasive surgery of the hallux valgus, and how to correct it. Level of Evidence: Diagnostic Level 5. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
