Twenty patients (30 feet) with symptomatic bunionettes refractory to conservative care underwent longitudinal diaphyseal osteotomy, lateral condylectomy, and distal metatarsophalangeal realignment. At an average of 31 months followup, 93% (28 feet) noted good or excellent results. This technique was found to be useful and predictable in correcting the bunionette deformity.
