Regional Bone Density Analysis of Minimally Invasive Bunionette Fixation Target Sites

During fixation in minimally invasive bunionette deformity correction, the dorsomedial quadrant of the fifth metatarsal head remains the optimal fixation target site according to regional bone density. Adding to the reproducible minimally invasive surgical technique, surgeons should plan the trajectory to capture this dorsomedial quadrant during fixation.

Abstract

During fixation in minimally invasive bunionette deformity correction, the dorsomedial quadrant of the fifth metatarsal head remains the optimal fixation target site according to regional bone density. Adding to the reproducible minimally invasive surgical technique, surgeons should plan the trajectory to capture this dorsomedial quadrant during fixation.
