Evaluación de resultados radiográficos en población geriátrica con hallux valgus grado moderado a severo intervenido con técnica quirúrgica de Lelièvre y Vidalot / Evaluation of radiographic results in geriatric population with moderate to severe degree hallux valgus intervened with surgical technique of Lelièvre and Vidalot

Resumen: Antecedentes: Hallux valgus (HV) es una desviación en valgo de la articulación metatarsofalángica y en varo del primer metatarsiano. La cirugía pretende reestablecer la congruencia articular, corregir la deformidad y disminuir el dolor. Existe poca literatura de los resultados en población geriátrica. El propósito de este estudio es demostrar que la técnica quirúrgica abierta de Lelièvre y Vidalot logra resultados radiográficos aceptables en dicha población. Material y métodos: 68 pacientes entre 60 y 85 años intervenidos con técnica Lelièvre y Vidalot por HV moderado a severo de Isham, entre Enero 2014 y Enero 2017. Se evaluaron las radiografías preoperatoria, postoperatoria inmediata y a los seis meses, con radiometría convencional para esta afección; todas las mediciones se realizaron en sistema digital. Los datos se ingresaron en Microsoft Excel. Los valores de p < 0.05 se consideraron estadísticamente significativos. Resultados: De 68 pacientes (54 mujeres y 14 hombres), edad media 68.0 años, 12 presentaron afectación bilateral; 28 segundo dedo en garra. El ángulo metatarsofalángico con una media preoperatoria fue 36.6o, incrementado en 100% de los casos de ángulo intermetatarsal 1-2, existiendo una correlación p < 0.05 entre ángulo intermetatarsal y aumento del ángulo metatarsofalángico. Los resultados postquirúrgicos inmediato y a seis meses presentaron una correlación p = 0.3107. Conclusiones: El tratamiento de HV moderado a severo en nuestra población geriátrica bajo técnica Lelièvre y Vidalot logra una corrección aceptable demostrada radiográficamente en el postoperatorio inmediato y a los seis meses, esto traduce una opción viable de tratamiento quirúrgico en dicha población.

Abstract: Background: Hallux valgus (HV) defines a valgo deviation from the metatarsophalangeal joint and in a varo of the first metatarsal. The surgery aims to restore joint congruence, correct deformity and decrease pain. There is little literature on the results in the geriatric population. The purpose of this study is intended to demonstrate that the open surgical technique of Lelièvre and Vidalot achieves acceptable radiographic results in that population. Material and methods: 68 patients between 60 and 85 years of age were involved with Lelièvre Technique and Vidalot for moderate to severe HV of Isham, between January 2014 and January 2017. Immediate postoperative and six month radiographs were evaluated with conventional radiometry for this condition; All measurements were made in digital system. The data was entered in Microsoft Excel. p values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: Out of 68 patients (54 women and 14 men), average age 68.0 years. 12 had bilateral concern. 28 second finger claw. The metatarsphasopalangic angle with a preoperative mean was 36.6o, increased by 100% of cases of intermetatarsal angle 1-2, with a correlation p < 0.05 between intermetatarsal angle and metatarsal angle increase. Immediate and six-month post-surgical results with a correlation of p = 0.3107. Conclusions: The treatment of moderate to severe HV in our geriatric population under technique Lelièvre and Vidalot achieves an acceptable correction demonstrated radiographically in the immediate postoperative period and at six month, this translates a viable option of surgical treatment in these population.

Abstract: Introduction: It is essential that orthopaedic resident physicians be highly proficient in all aspects, considering the balance between supply, demand, need and context. Fundamental to identify the capacity and quality installed for their training in Mexico. Material and methods: Observational Study, transverse, non-probabilistic sampling-conglomerates, in two phases. The instrument has 8 domains, 57 variables and 4,867 items. 60 graduate professors of 20 states, 50 hospital sites, 22 university programs. Results: 1,038 years of experience (collective intelligence), 17 years of experience/teacher (01 to 50 years). Identified: acute pathology 30 (2 to 90%), chronic pathology 30 (5 to 96%), patients ˂ 15 years, 10 (3 to 30%), patients between 15 and 65 years, 47 (2 to 78%), patients ˃ 65 years, 20 (2 to 60%), number of beds/seat 20 (2 to 510), number of clinics 3 (1 to 48), number of surgical procedures/headquarters per year at the national level, was 960 (50 to 24,650). The national average per resident doctor is 362 surgeries/year with 1,450 surgical times/year. Conclusions: The needs and resources for the training of physicians specializing in orthopedics/traumatology are highly heterogeneous, so it should be adapted to the epidemiological needs of the region of influence, in an area of epidemiological transition. 62.2% expressed not having or have bad academic and scientific infrastructure at its headquarters, more than 50% without rotation overseas and ˃ 90% without regular scientific production.
