Proximal versus distal metatarsal osteotomies for moderate to severe hallux valgus deformity: a systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical and radiological outcomes.

For clinical and radiological outcomes, the quantitative synthesis demonstrated that there were no significant differences between PMO and DMO groups in the medium term. These findings were supported by data from non-randomized studies. For the reported complications, we did not detect any significant differences between the intervention groups.
