Methods. 23 women and 2 men (33 feet) aged 35 to 80 (mean, 52) years underwent minimally invasive surgery for moderate (n=25) and severe (n=8) hallux valgus using the Endolog system. The hallux valgus angle (HVA), the intermetatarsal angle (IMA), and the proximal articular set angle (PASA) were measured on radiographs. The feet were also assessed based on the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scale. Results. The mean follow-up duration was 18.2 (range, 12–36) months.
