Spontaneous Reduction in the Intermetatarsal Angle in Distal First Metatarsal Osteotomies with No Lateral Head Displacement in Hallux Valgus.

Distal osteotomies allow for spontaneous reduction in the IMA in HV. First metatarsal head translation through an osteotomy should not be considered as the only procedure to correct IMAs in distal osteotomies.
