Abstract.

Of 54 patients, we reviewed 26 with 28 operations for hallux valgus according to the Viladot-Regnauld technique. Follow-up was 18.7 (12–26) years. In 26 operations, the score according to Kitaoka and modified by Calder was excellent or good, and in two, fair. There were no complications. Average valgus angle correction was 15° (8°–29°) and average intermetatarsal angle correction was 7° (4°–12°). Sesamoids were medialised, on average, by at least 25% compared to the pre-operative situation. The results confirm the validity of this surgical procedure.
