title: [Radiographic course of inverted osteochondral graft using the Regnauld technic in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus].
abstract: The osteocartilaginous bone graft, conceived by Regnauld for surgical treatment of hallux valgus, is to-day widely known and practised. We have preferably employed the so called "inverted graft", while Regnauld, in his recent monography, defines it less satisfactory than the "cork" or "hat" shaped grafts. Therefore, we have observed the radiological evolution of our inverted grafts, to evaluate the possible differences of their "rootage" in comparison to the cork grafts, studied by Valenti in 1976. Some possible causes of the infrequent failures of this grafting are also examined and discussed. We conclude that the osteocartilaginous graft evolution do not show radiological differences referable to the graft morphology and that unfavourable evolution, when is present, concern at first the articular (cartilaginous) side of the graft, being independent of failed rootage or aseptic necrosis of the bony side.
