“…11 As an arthroscopic procedure, advantages associated with this technique include better cosmesis, better visualization, limited bone resection and less soft-tissue dissection (Table 2). 7,8,11 However, the working space of the nonunion site is limited and the arthroscopic approach was technically difficult. Moreover, in case of screw loosening, there would be dilatation of the screw tract and associated bone cyst formation.…”

Revision arthrodesis is indicated in symptomatic nonunion of the first tarsometatarsal joint. Revision by first tarsometatarsal arthroscopy cannot deal with the dilated screw tract and associated bone cysts. Revision by bone endoscopy is indicated in symptomatic nonunion of the first tarsometatarsal joint, which is previously fixed by transarticular screw along with loosening of the screw and bone cyst formation. The screw tract makes up the portal tract, with the proximal and distal ends of the tract corresponding to the proximal and distal portals, respectively. In this technical note, we describe zonal debridement and bone grafting of the bone cysts, nonunion site, and the screw tract via the bone endoscopy. This can resolve all the co-pathologies of nonunion of the first tarsometatarsal fusion.

“…Recently, the technique of arthroscopic Lapidus arthrodesis has been reported with the advantage of preservation of the soft-tissue envelope. 7,8 Nonunion of the first metatarsocuneiform joint fusion is the most frequent complication, with a reported rate range from 3.3% to 12%. 9,10 In case of symptomatic nonunion, revision arthrodesis is indicated.…”

“…It is felt that medial ray stabilization by the Lapidus procedure gives appropriate and reliable correction of deformity in all planes. [19][20][21][22][23][24] This is an important tool in the surgeon's armamentarium given the frequent presentation of hallux valgus deformity to the foot and ankle surgeons office. The prevalence of hallux valgus ranges between 23% and 35.7%.…”

Hallux valgus is a common deformity encountered by the foot and ankle specialist. The treatment options are many for this deformity. Both single and double corrective osteotomies as well as arthrodesis procedures are commonly utilized to obtain correction. The approach to management, procedures as well as outcomes are reviewed and compared highlighting the optimal treatment for the hallux valgus deformity.
