Title: Treatment of juvenile hallux valgus interphalangeus with a double compression headless bone screw. Author: Göksel F, Ermutlu C, Gölge UH, Kaymaz B. Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2015 Aug 04; 2015():. PubMed ID: 26243744. Abstract: A 14-year-old girl presented with idiopathic valgus deformity of her left great toe at the interphalangeal joint (IPJ). The deformity, which had been present but asymptomatic for the past 4 years, began to enlarge and cause discomfort. The measured IPJ angle on anteroposterior standing X-ray was 26°. We treated the toe by medial closing wedge osteotomy and fixation with a double compression headless bone screw (DCHBS). Postoperative hallux valgus interphalangeus (HVI) angle was 14°.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
