Introduction: Metatarsus adductus (MA) increases the risk of recurrence following surgery for hallux valgus (HV). The goal of this study was to analyze patients with severe MA and identify clinical/surgical factors that are associated with a lower rate of recurrent deformity.

Methods: 587 patients underwent correction of HV deformity. The rate of recurrence of HV was 15% (63 out of 414 patients) in patients without MA (MA angle < 20°) and 29.6% (50 out of 173 patients) in patients with MA. 19 patients with severe MA (>31°) were identified; 8 of 19 had associated tarsometatarsal arthritis, and two patients had a skew foot deformity. Ten patients had severe valgus lesser toe deformities. Clinical information collected included associated diagnoses, the presence of arthritis of the tarsometatarsal joints, the presence and degree of lesser toe valgus deformities and surgical procedures performed. Radiographic recurrence was defined as a postoperative HVA > 20°.

Results: 9/19 patients were treated with a modified Lapidus procedure and 10 patients underwent a distal first metatarsal osteotomy. Of the 9 patients who were treated with a modified Lapidus procedure, 6 patients underwent simultaneous realignment lesser metatarsal osteotomy or arthrodesis of the 2^nd/3^rd TMT joints. 1/9 of these patients had radiographic recurrence of deformity. Of the 10 patients who underwent a distal first metatarsal osteotomy without realignment proximal osteotomy or arthrodesis, 5 had recurrence of deformity. Of the 11 patients with severe valgus lesser toe deformity, those who were treated with simultaneous additional distal lesser metatarsal osteotomies, did not have recurrence of hallux valgus.

Conclusion: The use of a modified Lapidus procedure led to a lower rate of HV deformity recurrence in comparison to isolated distal first metatarsal osteotomies. Treatment of lesser toe deformity with distal osteotomy should be included as part of the treatment algorithm.
