Bunions are a common deformity of the great toe that is most prevalent in the aging female cohort. The etiology is multi-factorial including genetic predisposition and chronic exposure to narrow toe box shoes. The static soft tissue constraints attenuate medially and contract laterally, and the plantar dynamic flexors deviate laterally pulling the great toe into valgus and pronation. Illustration A is an example of this deformity. Coughlin summarizes the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of hallux valgus.
