Abstract

Background

Iatrogenic hallux varus is a rare deformity linked to bunion surgery at late adult age. Here reported is the first adolescent case of acquired hallux varus and medial dislocation of both sesamoid bones.

Case Report

The patient had had a surgical intervention under his first metatarsophalangeal joint when he was 10 years old. Correction of the deformity with a tendon transfer and medial capsular release alone—as was recommended for adults—was impossible in this adolescent, 8 years after the index surgery. Excision of the contracted medial structures and repair of the lateral retinaculum of the fibular sesamoid obtained a perfect correction of the dislocated sesamoid bones.
