  • Title: Metaphyseal osteotomy for the treatment of tailor's bunions.
    Author: Sakoff M, Levy AI, Hanft JR.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1989; 28(6):537-41. PubMed ID: 2630593.
    Abstract:
    There have been many surgical approaches described for the surgical treatment of tailor's bunions. The authors have been using a procedure that addresses both an elevated fourth to fifth intermetatarsal angle and an elevated lateral deviation angle, for the past 3 years. The metaphyseal osteotomy provides reliable correction of these two abnormalities and allows for uncomplicated rigid fixation.
