Abstract

In a retrospective study, we compared the results of 24 cases of Chevron osteotomies with those of 17cases of Wilsons osteotomies in the treatment of hallux valgus. We used FFSS(Fore Foot Scoring System) and radiographic findings. There were no differences between the two operations in terms of pain relief and appearance. All patients in the Chevron and Wilsons osteotomy group had good functional results and were more satisfied with the appearance of the foot. We conclude Wilsons osteotomy is useful method for correction of hallux valgus.
