Brief Summary

HV correction surgery using SERI appear to sufficiently reduce the severity of HV deformity in all radiological measurements (HVA, IMA, DMAA) and the correction of subluxation of the first MTP joint and the sesamoids. SERI technique is an easy, inexpensive, less invasive, more cosmetic, with shorter operative time and with minimal complication rates. To our knowledge, there is no report regarding HV treatment using SERI from Saudi Arabia or in any part of the Middle East. Therefore, this study conducted to determine the radiological measurements done preoperatively and compare the measurements done at one year postoperatively, recording the complication happened and measuring the cost effectiveness of such procedure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • radiological measurements

    Radiological assessment includes weight-bearing anteroposterior (AP) and lateral imaging of the foot. The severity of the deformity is usually classified as mild, when the hallux valgus angle (HVA) is up to 19o , intermetatarsal angle (IMA) up to 13o; moderate when HVA is 20o to 40o; and severe when HVA is \>40o and IMA \>20o

    one year

Study Arms (1)

a minimally invasive surgery (SERI)

OTHER

The surgery consisted of varus traction, skin incision, metatarsal osteotomy and K- wire insertion. All the cases were done by the senior consultant orthopedic surgeon, including preoperative planning, the osteotomy itself and the follow up in the clinic. Another orthopedic surgeon was involved in collecting the data, doing all the measurements preoperative and postoperative and assisting the primary surgeon during the surgery.

Procedure: a minimally invasive surgery (SERI)

Interventions

The SERI technique (as abbreviated to stand for simple, effective, rapid and inexpensive) was presented by several authors to be a minimally invasive technique since it presents with the same advantages as the percutaneous techniques with less tissue dissection and a need for only temporary hardware, meaning no instrumentation and surgery is performed under direct vision without fluoroscopy
