Ligaments of the Ankle Joint
The ankle joint is medically known as the talocrural joint. Three bones make up this joint; the tibia, fibula, and talus.1 The weight of the body is transmitted from the tibia to the talus which distributes the weight anteriorly and posteriorly within the foot.
Radiographic comparison of open and minimally invasive distal chevron metatarsal osteotomy in patients with Hallux valgus
This study aimed to compare radiographic outcomes of open and minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in patients with hallux valgus. We reviewed data of patients with hallux valgus who underwent open or minimally invasive distal chevron osteotomy at our institution. Radiographic assessment was completed preoperatively, immediate postoperatively, and one year postoperatively using eight weight bearing parameters.
