Treatment Options
Conservative Management
Wide shoes, bunion pads, orthotics — manage pain but do not correct the deformity. Suitable for mild cases or poor surgical candidates.
Minimally Invasive (MIS) Osteotomy
Percutaneous chevron or scarf osteotomy through 3–4 mm stab incisions — walk same day in post-op shoe, excellent cosmetic result.
Open Scarf + Akin Osteotomy
Traditional gold-standard correction for moderate-to-severe deformity — highly reproducible, long-term data supporting durability.
Lapidus Procedure (First TMT Fusion)
Fusion of the first tarsometatarsal joint for hypermobile bunions — highest correction, definitive treatment for recurrence prevention.
