There are three types of hallux valgus surgeries, each used for different degrees of severity of the forefoot\u2019s malposition. Most importantly, patients should actively be aware of the types of shoes worn after surgery, as it is not uncommon for hallux valgus to be caused by improper fitting shoes. Women are more likely to be affected by this condition, as high-heels and very tight shoes are commonly behind a case of hallux valgus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide mb-0\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide box is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" id=\"vorteile-box\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:45%\">\n<p class=\"semibold box-header bold\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Your advantages at OrthoCenter Munich<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>International Excellence in Orthopaedics<\/strong>: Treatment of patients from around the world with multilingual care and the highest international standards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><strong>Scientifically Leading Expertise:<\/strong><\/strong> Over one hundred scientific publications and international research ensure evidence-based medicine at the highest level.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Modern Conservative and Minimally Invasive Therapies<\/strong>: Regenerative medicine such as PRP, hyaluronic acid or stem cell therapy combined with precise arthroscopic surgery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:55%\">\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Specialisation in Shoulder, Knee, Elbow and Ankle:<\/strong> Individual diagnostics and treatment for all relevant joint conditions and injuries.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><strong>High-Level Sports Orthopaedics<\/strong>: <\/strong>Modern treatment concepts and structured return-to-sport strategies for recreational and professional athletes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Premium Private Practice with Personal Care:<\/strong> Short pathways, direct communication with your physician and individual, high-quality support throughout the entire course of treatment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\" id=\"leistungs-main\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase bold\" id=\"block-63a5f75c-9c09-4475-9864-c821f1b526aa\">\u0421orrection in mild to semi-advanced cases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The easiest form of forefoot surgery is the so-called minimally invasive surgery. This type of treatment does not require the use of wire or screws \u2013 instead, a small instrument is used to scrape away excess bone matter. Only two small incisions are required, making this a very gentle type of treatment. Another gentle form of treatment is a chevron osteotomy. In this case, the two toe bones are fixed together with a screw or wire. Ideally, this type of surgery is done in conjunction with soft-tissue correction, so that the so-called sesamoid bones (which are located on the foot tendons) can be more easily moved into the correct position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chirurgie-orthocenter.jpeg\" alt=\"Operative Therapien OrthoCenter\" class=\"wp-image-18545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chirurgie-orthocenter.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chirurgie-orthocenter-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-background\" style=\"background-color:var(--hellgrau)\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading uppercase bold\">Scarf osteotomy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the start of a Scarf osteotomy, which is used in more advanced cases of <span style=\"color: var(--shwarz);\" class=\"stk-highlight\">hallux valgus<\/span>, a tourniquet is placed on the thigh in order to stop the flow of blood to the foot. This allows the surgery to take place without much bleeding. Patients are either generally anesthetised or given an epidural. At first the metatarsal bone is cut and then moved into the correct position. Soft-tissue corrections are also made simultaneously. This type of hallux valgus treatment leaves patients with little or no pain after the operation. After approximately two weeks, the wound is completely healed and just two weeks after that, patients may begin to fully weight their foot again. Patients should wear a special orthopaedic shoe that reduces the load on the foot and allows them to get back to work more quickly for about four weeks after the surgery. Also, it should be noted that most private and public health insurance providers cover the costs of this type of surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-top rounded arzt-karte karte-right has-hellgrau-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full m-0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/en\/dr-med-daniel-berthold\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/ortho-center.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/OrthoCenter-Team-Dr.-Daniel-Berthold.png\" alt=\"Dr. Daniel Berthold smiles at the camera, wearing a white lab coat with the name &#x2018;Priv.-Doz.
