Radiological Measurements in Patients With Mild to Severe Hallux Valgus After Correction Surgery (SERI)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating a minimally invasive surgery (SERI) for Hallux Valgus. Completed, enrolled 29 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
HV correction surgery using SERI appear to sufficiently reduce the severity of HV deformity in all radiological measurements (HVA, IMA, DMAA) and the correction of subluxation of the first MTP joint and the sesamoids. SERI technique is an easy, inexpensive, less invasive, more cosmetic, with shorter operative time and with minimal complication rates. To our knowledge, there is no report regarding HV treatment using SERI from Saudi Arabia or in any part of the Middle East. Therefore, this study conducted to determine the radiological measurements done preoperatively and compare the measurements done at one year postoperatively, recording the complication happened and measuring the cost effectiveness of such procedure.

Timeline
Interventions
The SERI technique (as abbreviated to stand for simple, effective, rapid and inexpensive) was presented by several authors to be a minimally invasive technique since it presents with the same advantages as the percutaneous techniques with less tissue dissection and a need for only temporary hardware, meaning no instrumentation and surgery is performed under direct vision without fluoroscopy
