title: Treatment of hallux valgus by modified McBride procedure: a 6-year follow-up.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Surgical decision-making was reevaluated by comparison with an algorithm designed to analyze treatment of hallux valgus deformities.
  
  
  METHODS
  A modified McBride procedure was performed on 52 feet of 35 patients with hallux valgus deformity. From this series, 36 feet of 21 patients were evaluated preoperatively, early postoperatively, and late postoperatively by means of subjective evaluation and clinical and radiological findings.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The hallux valgus angle preoperatively, early postoperatively, and late postoperatively was 32.7 +/- 8.5 degrees, 10.1 +/- 6.9 degrees, and 20.6 +/- 9.5 degrees, respectively. Hallux valgus recurrence of 72.2% was observed. Subjective results were better and the patients rated their satisfaction with the procedure as excellent or high in 23 cases (63.9%) and moderate, low, or unsatisfactory in 13 cases (36.1%).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This level of patient satisfaction demonstrates that the McBride procedure is an efficient approach for eliminating pain due to hallux valgus deformity.
