HALLUX VALGUS CORRECTION WITH SCARF OSTEOTOMY IN COMBINATION WITH MODIFIED MC BRIDE PROCEDURE
2004
Purpose: The advantages of the Scarf osteotomy are the greater ROM and the ability of better Stabilisation. We had compared our results with this theory. Methods-Results: At 41 patients with mean age 52,5, y(16–70) we made 47 Scarf osteotomies. At 25 patients we made also corrective osteotomies at the kleiner toes. The preoperative criteria for our study were degenerative Osteoarthritis of the 1st MP joint, HV angle> 40° or IM I-II angle> 20°. The postoperative and radiologic control was continued for 11–18 months(M. 18m) 38 patients were very satisfied with the results,2 sat-isfied, 1 patient was claimed for reduced ROM of the 1st PIP joint. The mean rehabilitation time was 2,9 months(1,5–6M). Pre- and postoperative compare had shown a change at AOFAS score from 48 (19–80) to 87 (35–100),change of the HVA from 35,2° (29°–48°) to 16°(4°–33°) and change of the IM I-II angle from 14,7°(11°–19°) to 8,4°(6°–12°). The DMAA didn’t show any particular change. The major shortening of the 1st Metatarsal was 3mm. A t 1 patient we find early osteoarthitic changes, but we have seen no pseudarthrosis or Metatarsal Head Necrosis. At 10 patients we measured the 1st MP joint ROM Conclusions: The Scarf osteotomy with the modified Mc Bride procedure is an effective method for the treatment of Hallux Valgus.
