Review of radiographic measurements following Austin bunionectomy.
This study compared preoperative and postoperative results for selected radiographic measurements of 30 patients undergoing the modified Austin bunionectomy procedure for the correction of hallux abducto valgus. Significant reductions in all postoperative radiographic values were demonstrated, including hallux abductus angle, metatarsus primus adductus angle, tibial sesamoid position, and first metatarsal protrusion distance.
