    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Podiatric Surgery

    Background:

    • Hallux valgus is a common foot deformity.
    • First metatarsal osteotomies are a standard surgical correction method.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a modification of the Austin "V" procedure for hallux valgus correction.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of this modified technique.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of first metatarsal osteotomies for hallux valgus.
    • Presentation of a modified Austin "V" osteotomy using geometric principles.
    • Surgical correction in five hallux valgus patients.

    Main Results:

    • Successful correction of hallux valgus in all five reported patients.
    • The modified Austin "V" procedure yielded positive outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified Austin "V" procedure is an effective surgical option for hallux valgus.
    • Geometric principles can be applied to refine osteotomy techniques.
