“…19 Operative treatment of hallux valgus has demonstrated very good results. 9,23,24 Patients who underwent surgery were more satisfied, had higher functional scores and less pain, and required less help from a specialist for their footwear as compared to patients who were treated nonsurgically with orthoses. However, recent findings from plantar pressure analysis have suggested that physiologic gait patterns are not restored after hallux valgus surgery, despite favorable clinical and radiographic results.…”
