Abstract
The authors evaluated the radiographs of 40 patients (72 feet) under 2 1 years of age who underwent surgery for symptomatic hallux abducto va lgus deformity at Northlake Regional Medical Center. Forty-eight of 72 feet had metatarsus adductus angles greater than 15-degrees. A statis tically significant correlation was found between an increasing metata rsus adductus angle and an increasing hallux abductus angle.
