By January 1992, 27 operations had been performed for hallux valgus in RA patients at our hospital, modified Hohmann operations in 10 feet of 5 female patients as a first operation, and in 13 feet of 7 female patients and in 4 feet of 2 male patients as a reoperation following procedures performed at other hospitals.
After the modified Hohmann operation, the subjective assessment of every patient was graded as excellent or good. Our review of them showed that the normalizing of the shifting of the sesamoid complex is very significant, and that instruction in the fitting of shoes after operation is also necessary.
