摘要
Biomechanical studies have shown that the Ludloff osteotomy fixed with lag screw compression is more rigid than the proximal crescentic and other 1st metatarsal osteotomies for the correction of symptomatic moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities. These studies, in conjunction with recently published clinical results, have renewed surgical interest in this osteotomy. In this article, we describe a reliable and reproducible method of performing the Ludloff osteotomy and identify several pearls and pitfalls based on our experience with this procedure. Additionally, recent clinical results are reviewed.
