Abstract

Hallux varus is an uncommon involvement in the orthopedic routine and consists of the medial deviation of the hallux from the first metatarsal. In this paper, we report a 45-year-old female patient who arrived at the health service after suffering trauma in the right foot. The patient developed a deformity when presenting a hallux varus post-traumatic, requiring surgical intervention. The mini endobutton technique was applied, presenting advantages over other surgical strategies because it promoted the functional and aesthetic rehabilitation of the patient. Level of Evidence V; Therapeutic Studies; Expert Opinion.
