Northlake Regional Medical Center, and Faculty, Podiatry Institute, Tucker, GA.

The authors evaluated the radiographs of 40 patients (72 feet) under 21 years of age who underwent surgery for symptomatic hallux abducto valgus deformity at Northlake Regional Medical Center. Forty-eight of 72 feet had metatarsus adductus angles greater than 15 degrees. A statistically significant correlation was found between an increasing metatarsus adductus angle and an increasing hallux abductus angle.
