Abstract

During a 10-year period, 46 feet with hallux valgus in 36 patients were operated on a.m. McBride. At the follow-up examination a median of 9 (2-11) years after the operation, a reduction in the hallux valgus angle from 32° to 26° and in the intermetatarsal angle from 13° to 10° was found; but on analyzing the single parts of the operation, we found that the result was only significant in those patients that had had the original procedures done, i.e., tenotomy and reattachment of the conjoined tendon, lateral capsulotomy, and lateral sesamoidectomy. McBride's operation for hallux valgus should be performed as described by the originator of the method.
