“…According to the Coughlin radiographic classification 1 , type-I deformity is an enlargement of the head of the fifth metatarsal, type-II is due to a lateral bowing with a valgus deviation of the fifth metatarsal shaft at its middle or distal level, and type-III deformity is an increase in the intermetatarsal angle between the fourth and the fifth metatarsals. There are many different techniques used to correct deformity of the fifth metatarsal, including soft-tissue procedures, metatarsal osteotomies, or prosthetic implants [1][2][3] . Osteotomies permit complete correction of the deformity with low recurrence rates, and they can be divided into three main groups: proximal, diaphyseal, or distal osteotomies .…”
