flat foot (pes planus)

1) A 44-year-old female has a Stage 2B acquired flat foot deformity that does not improve over 6 months of conservative management. She undergoes FDL tendon transfer to the navicular, calcaneal osteotomy, and tendoachilles lengthening. After this correction, it is thought that she would benefit from a opening wedge first cuneiform (Cotton) osteotomy. Which of the following best describes the Cotton osteotomy?

Plantarflexion osteotomy to correct residual forefoot varus

Medial opening wedge osteotomy to correct residual forefoot abduction

Plantarflexion osteotomy to correct residual forefoot valgus

Medial opening wedge osteotomy to correct residual hindfoot abduction

Plantarflexion osteotomy to correct residual hindfoot valgus
