Use of the lapidus bunionectomy in first ray insufficiency.
Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery 2001 April
Surgical management of first ray insufficiency in HAV or hallux limitus is crucial to long-term success. Although technically demanding, the Lapidus fusion serves to address the deformity at its apex and restores normal weight bearing to the foot. This arthrodesis offers predictable, durable results in addressing various first ray deformities and occupies an important place in the foot and ankle surgeon's armamentarium. The authors' technique is described herein for the interest of and evaluation by surgeons performing this procedure. As clinicians recognize the importance of addressing proximal components of the HAV deformity, the Lapidus and other procedures will likely see increased use in the surgical management of first ray deformities.
