  • Title: Lapidus: when and why?
    Author: Hernandez A, Hernandez PA, Hernandez WA.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 1989 Jan; 6(1):197-208. PubMed ID: 2653609.
    Abstract:
    The Lapidus procedure for correction of hallux valgus has fallen into disfavor over the years because of its complexity and often poor results. This article re-examines the Lapidus and describes its indications and use. The authors contend that the procedure does have efficacy and a place in the foot surgeon's armamentarium.
