title: Tricorrectional bunionectomy for surgical repair of juvenile hallux valgus.
abstract: The authors propose the use of the tricorrectional bunionectomy as an alternate correction of severe deformity in juvenile hallux valgus. In the past, hallux valgus surgery in juveniles has been avoided. A follow-up study of the tricorrectional bunionectomy as the surgical treatment for juvenile bunion deformity in seven patients is presented.
