  • Title: Traumatic hallux varus correction via split extensor tenodesis.
    Author: Hunter WN, Wasiak GA.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1984; 23(4):321-5. PubMed ID: 6470431.
    Abstract:
    Hallux varus is a deformity, either congenital or acquired, of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. It presents as a medical deviation of the hallux in relation to the longitudinal axis of the first metatarsal shaft. The authors discuss the case history of a patient and the surgical technique--a split width tenodesis--which they used to correct the deformity.
