N2 - More than 200 surgeries have been described for hallux valgus correction. The distal V-shape chevron-type osteotomy was described with no more than 50% translation of the distal fragment in relation to the metatarsal shaft. This concept of high, powerful correction for distal chevron osteotomy fixed by the Mini MaxLock Extreme ISO gives the surgeon the possibility of a mini-invasive rapid solution. A new technique of fixation is based on the Murawski and Beskin concept, because a powerful correction can be performed with a minimally invasive approach, but, in contrast to other studies, with stable osteotomy fixation.
