A CLINICAL STUDY OF ONE HUNDRED PATIENTS SUBJECTED TO SIMPLE EXOSTOSECTOMY FOR THE RELIEF OF BUNION PAIN

ROBERT T. McELVENNY M.D.1 and FREDERICK R. THOMPSON M.D.1

1 New York Orthopaedic Dispensary and Hospital

Simple exostosectomy is a satisfactory procedure for the relief of bunion pain. It has a definite place among the operations for painful bunion. The operation seems to the authors to be most applicable to those people with a mild to moderate degree of hallux valgus, who are beyond the third decade of life, and in whom correction of the hallux valgus is not essential.
