Metatarsal Horizontal Angle Variety Information of Female with Different Hallux Valgus

Abstract:

Hallux valgus is a common foot deformity with a multifactorial etiology. Factors associated with the development of hallux valgus (HV) are multifactorial and the etiology of hallux valgus remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to measure the biomechanical relationship between Hallux Valgus Angle (HVA), intermetatarsal Angle (IMA), Interphalangeal Angle (IPA), and metatarsal horizontal angle, in order to reveal the tendency of metatarsal horizontal angle along with hallux valgus angle increasing. Foot models of nine subjects are built through CT scan and editing software and calculated metatarsal horizontal angles using motion analysis system. It showed that with the increased of HVA, the metatarsal horizontal angle of the first to fifth was decreased. This method and results maybe have a new sight to reveal the characters of HV patients.
