A retrospective analysis. PG - 49-55 LID - S1268-7731(21)00024-2 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.fas.2021.01.012 [doi] AB - INTRODUCTION: Treatment of hallux valgus deformity associated with mild or moderate osteoarthritis (OA) is still a topic of debate. In the literature, there are few studies concerning the management of patients affected by this condition. This study aims to report the experience at mid- to long-term results of an original joint-preserving surgical technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients affected by mild to moderate hallux valgus deformity and associated to grade 1-2 OA and treated with modified Simple-Effective-Rapid-Inexpensive (SERI) technique from 2008 to 2018 were selected. Inclusion criteria were mild or moderate hallux valgus angle (HVA) <40 degrees and an intermetatarsal angle (IMA) <20 degrees and associated grade 1-2 OA of the first metatarso-phalangeal joint (MTPJ). RESULTS: 128 feet in 120 consecutive patients, undergone modified SERI procedure, have been retrospectively reviewed at a mean follow-up of 5.1 +/- 3.8 years (range 2-11). American Orthopaedics Foot Ankle Society (AOFAS) score that was significantly improved from 44.2 +/- 13.2 to 88.2 +/- 9.6. Pre-operative average HVA and IMA values decreased respectively from 31.6 degrees +/- 3.9 degrees to 9.1 degrees +/- 4.4 degrees and from 16.2 degrees +/- 3.8 degrees to 7.2 degrees +/- 3.1 degrees . The average distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) value improved from 28.2 degrees +/- 6.5 degrees to 7.1 degrees +/- 6 degrees . OA of the first MTPJ highlighted a grade 1 in 46 feet and a grade 2 in 82 feet pre-operatively and a grade 0 in 30 feet, grade 1 in 82 feet, and grade 2 in 16 feet at the final follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: The modifications to the SERI technique could extend the indications to patients affected by hallux valgus with mild to moderate OA. The wider case series and the longer follow-up of this study make us believe this technique is very useful for improving the quality of life in these patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
