RESUMO
The authors reviewed 120 "short Z" bunionectomy operations and, on the basis of available clinical and radiographic data, selected 50 osteotomies in 36 patients for review. Follow-up averaged 21 months and ranged from 13 to 26 months. Excellent and good results were found in 92%, while fair and poor results were obtained in 8% of patients. Although seven fractures occurred in the 50 osteotomy sites, most of these resolved without sequellae after appropriate treatment.
