Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of the parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy which is performed the Scarf osteotomy parallel to the shaft of the 1st metatarsal bone for hallux valgus deformities. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 43 patients who had been treated by the parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus deformities between January 2006 and March 2011. We evaluated the results after this Scarf osteotomy with respect American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores, radiologic results by comparing intermetatarsal angle between 1stand 2nd metatarsal bones and hallux valgus angle. Results: We checked out the pre-operational and post-operational radiologic evaluation of intermetatarsal angle and hallux valgus angle between 1st and 2nd metatarsal bones. The mean AOFAS scores improved from 63.5 to 88.5. At final follow up, The hallux valgus angle improved from $31.4^{\circ}$ (16-52) to $9.0^{\circ}$ (3-13) and the intermetatarsal angle improved from $18.6^{\circ}$ (12-30) to $9.3^{\circ}$ (6-12) postoperatively. There was no case of major complications included recurrence of valgus deformity, correction or fixation failure and stress fractures. Conclusion: Our results suggest the our parallel-shaped modified Scarf osteotomy produces improved AOFAS scores, and effective correction of hallux valgus deformities. Our Scarf technique of osteotomy which is performed in parallel to the metatarsal bone minimizes the need for skill while more reliable and obtaining good correction and avoids associated complications.
Background: We developed a modified proximal scarf osteotomy technique for moderate to severe hallux valgus in an attempt to obtain better correction of the deformity. In addition, we compared the clinical and radiographic results of this modified technique with those of the classic scarf osteotomy reported in other studies. Methods: Between December 2004 and July 2009, 44 cases of modified proximal scarf osteotomy was performed in 35 patients with moderate hallux valgus. The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, range of motion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint, and radiographic results were evaluated. Results: The mean hallux valgus angle and the mean first intermetatarsal angle improved from an average of $32.2^{\circ}$ and $14.3^{\circ}$, respectively, to an average of $12.5^{\circ}$ and $8.6^{\circ}$, respectively. The distal metatarsal articular angle improved from an average of $18.7^{\circ}$ to $12.4^{\circ}$. The preoperative mean AOFAS and VAS scores were 47 points and 7 points, respectively, which improved to 86 points and 1 point, respectively, at the final follow-up. Limited range of motion occurred in two cases postoperatively. The height of the first metatarsal-cuneiform joint, which was an average of 15.9 mm preoperatively, did not change. The first metatarsal-talus angle increased from an average of $4.1^{\circ}$ to $7.1^{\circ}$. Conclusions: The modified proximal scarf osteotomy for the treatment of moderate hallux valgus showed similar results with the classic scarf osteotomy with regard to changes in the first intermetatarsal angle and postoperative satisfaction. Therefore, we suggest the modified proximal scarf osteotomy be considered as well as other proximal osteotomy in the treatment of moderate to severe hallux valgus.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the frequency of troughing and stress fracture, which are the major complications of scarf osteotomy, and to suggest methods to prevent these complications. Materials and Methods: We reviewed 243 cases of 137 patients treated with the scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus from January 2005 to December 2012. The mean follow-up period was 2.8 years. During the scarf osteotomy, a long oblique longitudinal osteotomy was performed in order to decrease the possibility of troughing and stress fracture. Radiographs of lateral view of the foot were obtained and the thicknesses of the first metatarsal base at the sagittal plane were measured and compared. Results: There was no troughing during fragment translation and screw fixation intraoperatively. Radiographs of lateral view of the foot taken preoperatively and at the last follow-up showed that the mean thickness of the first metatarsal was 22.4 mm preoperatively and 21.6 mm at the last follow-up, with a mean difference of 0.8 mm. And no stress fracture was observed. Conclusion: To prevent troughing and stress fracture, a long oblique longitudinal cut, parallel to the first metatarsal plantar surface, was performed, making both ends of the proximal segment truncated cone-shape, and securing the strong bony strut of the proximal segment. No troughing or stress fracture was experienced with scarf osteotomy.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to the evaluate the clinical and radiographic results and complication of the Scarf osteotomy which is one of the surgical treatment of Hallux valgus. Material and Method: Fifty feet (30 patients) of moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity were operated by Scarf osteotomy procedure from January 2002 to July 2002. Patients were asked about their satisfaction in terms of pain, appearance and motion. The AOFAS clinical ratio scales and radiographic results for hallux valgus were evaluated. Result: The mean Hallux valgus angle improved from an average of 30.6 degrees to 9.0 degrees and the first intermetatarsal angle improved from an average 13.3 degrees to 5.2 degrees respectively. The preoperative mean AOFAS score was 58 points and on last follow up AOFAS score improved to 88 points. Complication which including troughing, nonunion, malunion was not developed. Conclusion: We found that Scarf osteotomy is a reliable operation for mild to moderate Hallux valgus deformity as regards firm fixation and early postoperative ambulation and large contact area for union.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiographic and clinical results of short scarf osteotomy that has minimized longitudinal cut for moderate hallux valgus. Materials and Methods: Total 12 patients (12 feet) were reviewed by medical records and radiographs. All patients were female and the mean age at the time of operation was 41.5 years. The mean followup time was 21.2 months. We modified original scarf osteotomy by shortening the longitudinal cut to 15~20 mm in length. Additionally, Akin osteotomy of the first proximal phalanx was done in 7 feet and Weil osteotomy of the second metatarsal was done in 4 feet. First-second intermetatarsal and hallux valgus angles were analyzed radiographically before and after the operation. And the clinical result was assessed by AOFAS (American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society) hallux score. Results: First-second intermetatarsal and hallux valgus angles were reduced from the mean preoperative values of $14.6^{\circ}$ and $32.8^{\circ}$ to $6.5^{\circ}$ and $11.2^{\circ}$, respectively. The mean AOFAS hallux score was increased from 52.4 points preoperatively to 88.2 points at followup. Three complications were found: metatarsal fracture during the operation, painful scar around second metatarsal head after Weil osteotomy and postoperative neuralgia. There was no transfer metatarsalgia or recurrence of hallux valgus during followup. Conclusion: Short scarf osteotomy would be an effective surgical procedure for moderate hallux valgus with the benefits of minimized soft tissue dissection and stable fixation.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiological and clinical outcomes of scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus (HV) deformity in elderly patient with osteoporosis. Materials and Methods: A total of 58 elderly patients (mean age, 72.6 years) underwent scarf osteotomy for HV deformity between 2008 and 2015. The mean follow-up period was 24.4 months. Of the 58 patients, 42 were diagnosed with osteoporosis and 16 were diagnosed as normal. The radiological and clinical outcomes were assessed preoperatively, postoperatively, and at final follow-up, including HV angle, intermetatarsal (IM) angle, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, patient satisfaction, visual analogue scale (VAS), and complication. Results: There was no significant difference in HV angle and IM angle between the osteoporosis group and normal bone mineral densitometry group at all time points, preoperative, postoperative, and final follow-up. Moreover, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups with respect to the AOFAS score and VAS evaluations. In the osteoporosis group, the mean HV angle improved from $36.7^{\circ}$ preoperatively to $11.3^{\circ}$ at the time of final follow-up, and the mean IM angle improved from $13.2^{\circ}$ to $5.7^{\circ}$. The mean AOFAS score improved from 52.6 preoperatively to 89.1 at the time of final follow-up. With respect to satisfaction, 83.4% of patients were very satisfied or satisfied. There were no serious complications, and all cases showed complete union at the osteotomy site. Conclusion: We believed that scarf osteotomy is a safe, effective procedure for the correction of elderly patients with osteoporosis.
Purpose: This study compared the radiographic and clinical outcomes of simultaneous bilateral short scarf osteotomy with those of unilateral short scarf osteotomy in hallux valgus patients. Materials and Methods: The authors undertook a retrospective chart and radiographic review between January 2015 and June 2017 to identify 15 patients (30 cases, group A) who underwent a simultaneous bilateral short scarf osteotomy. The patients were matched with 30 patients (30 cases, group B) with a unilateral short scarf osteotomy. No significant preoperative differences were observed between the two groups in terms of age, gender, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) hallux score, and radiographic parameters. The clinical and radiographic follow-up was carried out at three months and one year. Results: Hallux valgus angles in groups A and B were reduced from the mean preoperative values of 32.5° and 34.7° to 12.5° and 12.2° at 12 months, respectively. The first-second intermetatarsal angles in groups A and B were also reduced from the mean preoperative values of 14.2° and 16.5° to 7.4° and 7.3° at 12 months, respectively. No significant inter-group differences in radiographic outcomes were observed. After three months, the patients in group A reported significantly worse mean pain and functional scores than group B. The mean AOFAS hallux score was higher in group B at the three-month follow-up, but this difference disappeared at the one-year followup. Conclusion: Simultaneous bilateral surgery can be offered to patients with a hallux valgus deformity requiring correction. On the other hand, they should be informed of the long recovery period.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of shortening scarf osteotomy on pain relief and range of motion (ROM) of the first metatarsophalangeal joint in hallux rigidus patients. Materials and Methods: Twenty-three cases of 19 patients who had been treated with shortening scarf osteotomy for the hallux rigidus between January 2007 and December 2013 were reviewed. The mean follow-up period was 21.4 months, and the mean age was 59.2 years. The first metatarsal bone was shortened until the ROM of the first metatarsophalangeal joint was greater than $80^{\circ}$ or $40^{\circ}$ of dorsiflexion. The length shortened by scarf osteotomy was measured. The authors also measured and compared the joint interval difference of the standing foot using an anteroposterior radiography. Moreover, the difference of ROM of the first metatarsophalangeal joint between the preoperative and final follow-up periods was also compared. The clinical results were evaluated and compared using the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scoring system and visual analogue scale (VAS) score. Results: The mean shortening length was about 6.5 mm (range, 4~9 mm). The joint space has been increased to 1.8 mm, and the ROM of the first metatarsophalangeal joint has also been increased to $18.4^{\circ}$ after the operation. In three cases, the postoperative ROM has been decreased to less $10^{\circ}$. The AOFAS score has been improved from 41.7 (range, 32~55) to 86.2 (range, 65~95), and the VAS score was also decreased from 3.7 (range, 3~5) to 1.3 (range, 0~3). Two cases have shown no decrease in pain even after the operation. Conclusion: Shortening scarf osteotomy was found to decrease joint pain by decompressing the pressure of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. This osteotomy also helped improve the ROM of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Shortening scarf osteotomy can be considered one of the effective methods for joint preservation.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiological and clinical results of modified scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus with lesser metatarsalgia. Materials and Methods: Total 19 patients (24 feet) were reviewed by medical records and radiographs. All patients were female and the mean age at the time of operation was 46.4 years. The mean follow-up time was 14.8 months. We modified original scarf osteotomy by adding the procedure of closing wedge osteotomy at the medial side of distal fragment for achieving of the supination of the first metatarsal head. Additionally, Akin osteotomy of the first proximal phalanx was done in 16 patients (20 feet) and no lesser metatarsal operation was done. First-second intermetatarsal, hallux valgus and distal metatarsal articular angles were analyzed radiologically before and after the operation. And 3-dimensional CT was used to evaluate the supination of the first metatarsal head. Clinical results were assessed by American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and persistence of lesser metatarsalgia. Results: First-second intermetatarsal and hallux valgus angles were reduced from the mean pre-operative values of $14.2^{\circ}$ and $32.5^{\circ}$ to $8^{\circ}$ and $12.5^{\circ}$, respectively, 12 months after the operation. And the supination of the first metatarsal head was confirmed by 3-dimensional CT. The mean AOFAS score improved from 41.4 points pre-operatively to 87.2 points at follow-up. Lesser metatarsalgia still remained in 2 patients (2 feet). Conclusion: Modified scarf osteotomy would be an effective surgical procedure, especially, for achieving downward displacement and supination of the first metatarsal head in hallux valgus with lesser metatarsalgia.

Purpose: Recurrence is one of the most common complications after primary correction for hallux valgus deformities. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of Scarf osteotomy with axial decompression in the treatment of recurrent hallux valgus. Materials and Methods: From April 2006 to April 2011, 14 cases (12 patients) of recurrent hallux valgus were managed with shortening Scarf osteotomy. Preoperative and postoperative radiographs were reviewed for the measurement of the hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA), and the amount of the $1^{st}$ metatarsal shortening. Clinical outcomes including the visual analogue scale (VAS), the AOFAS score, and the range of motion [ROM] of the 1st metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint were evaluated. Results: The mean HVA decreased from 27.9 degrees to 5.2 and the mean IMA decreased from 12.9 to 3.4. The mean VAS improved from 5.3 to 0.3 and the mean AOFAS score improved from 41 to 90. The mean amount of the 1st metatarsal shortening was 3.4 mm (2-5). The mean ROM of the $1^{st}$ MTP joint improved from 22 degrees (15-35) to 68 (55-75). Conclusion: Scarf osteotomy associated with axial decompression can be a useful revision procedure for the treatment of recurrent hallux valgus deformity.
