Background: Hallux valgus is an increasingly common deformity in young female athletes that constricts their daily athletic activities and influences foot cosmesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of modified Chevron osteotomy for hallux valgus deformity in this specific population.
Methods: Forty-two cases ofmodified Chevron osteotomies were carried out in 33 patients with mild to moderate hallux valgus deformity. Each participant was evaluated for AOFAS score, pain, range of motion, cosmetic and radiological outcome.
Results: Mean AOFAS score improved to 96.3 (p < 0.001) while the mean range of motion of the metatarsophalangeal joint was maintained (p = 0.138). The cosmetic result was excellent/good in 40 cases (95%). Mean metatarsophalangeal and intermetatarsal angles were decreased from 29.88 and 14.28 preoperatively to 12.28 and 8.18 postoperatively (p < 0.001 and p < 0.036), respectively.
Conclusions: Modified Chevron osteotomy could offer substantial correction of hallux valgus deformity in young female athletes, with excellent clinical outcome.
