Hallux Valgus Interphalangeus with Large Ossicle Formation: A Case Report.
Hallux valgus interphalangeus (HVIP) is a deviation of the distal phalanx in relation to the proximal phalanx. Its etiology is considered multifactorial, including growth development disturbances, external pressure, and biomechanical alteration involving the interphalangeal joint. Here, we report a case of HVIP with the presence of a large ossicle at the lateral side, which was considered related to HVIP development. A 21-year-old woman presented HVIP that had developed since childhood. She complained of pain in her right great toe that worsened in the previous several months, particularly when walking and wearing shoes. Surgical correction consisted of Akin osteotomy, fixation with headless screw, ossicle excision, and medial capsulorrhaphy. The interphalangeal joint angle was improved from 28.69⁰ pre-operatively to 8.93⁰ post-operatively. The wound healed uneventfully and the patient was satisfied. Akin osteotomy with concomitant ossicle excision was effective in this case. Gaining more knowledge regarding ossicles around the foot will provide a better understanding of deformity correction, especially from the biomechanical standpoint.
