Objective: Evaluate the impact of Chevron and extended Chevron techniques associated with Akin osteotomy on the range of motion (ROM) of hallux metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) and interphalangeal joint (IPJ) after three months and one year. Methods: Sixteen patients (17 feet) were evaluated for the ROM of hallux MPJ and IPJ pre-and postoperatively, the flexion-extension measurements were performed using a goniometer. Results: Comparing the pre-and postoperative measurements at three months and one year, the ROM decreased in MPJ extension and flexion, 9o and 5o, respectively, and IPJ flexion, 5o. The values presented statistical significance according to the analysis demonstrated (p>0.05). However, the decrease in IPJ extension was not statistically significant (decrease of 0.8o and p<0.05). Conclusions: Periarticular osteotomies of hallux MPJ had a significant decrease in the ROM after three months and one year.

Objective: Assess patient performance and quality of the stump after amputation at the Chopart (midtarsal) joint, with double-bundle transfer of the tibialis anterior muscle tendon to the talar neck. Methods: This study evaluated the medical records of 5 patients who underwent Chopart amputation with double-bundle transfer of the tibialis anterior tendon to the talar neck, assessing pre and postoperative performance and gait. Results: The patients were operated on between January 2008 and December 2018, and the data obtained from the survey allow us to conclude that, after the proposed procedure, all patients reported an improvement in walking, besides noting a significant reduction in the degree of stump equinus. Conclusion: The surgical technique described in this article produced a significant improvement in patient performance as assessed by the AOFAS hindfoot score, and prevented the formation of ulcers in the anterior region of the stump. Level of Evidence IV; Therapeutic Study; Case Series.
