  • Title: A new surgical technique for metatarsus primus varus correction with radical bunionectomy: a preliminary report.
    Author: Panacos N.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1977; 16(3):98-100. PubMed ID: 599262.
    Abstract:
    Dr. Panacos has developed a new surgical technique for correction of metatarsus primus varus. His technique, which is indicated in moderate to severe metatarsus primus varus (when the intermetatarsal angle exceeds 15 degrees), makes use of a stabilizing implant at the first metatarsal-cuneiform joint. Although the procedure has been performed on a limited number of patients, the author believes it to be superior to the osteotomy for metatarsus primus varus correction.
