  • Title: The relationship of abnormal foot pronation to hallux abducto valgus--a pilot study.
    Author: Ross FD.
    Journal: Prosthet Orthot Int; 1986 Aug; 10(2):72-8. PubMed ID: 3774514.
    Abstract:
    Abnormal foot mechanics is the most common cause of hallux abducto valgus. To date no quantitative data regarding the relationship between abnormal foot mechanics and the degree of hallux abducto valgus has been presented. An outline of the abnormal foot mechanics responsible for hallux abducto valgus is described along with a technique for measuring the extent of abnormal function. A common intrinsic abnormality responsible for hallux abducto valgus is described along with its diagnosis and orthotic treatment.
