Autogenous calcaneal bone graft repair of a closing base wedge osteotomy nonunion

J Pontious and JT Marcoux
Department of Podiatric Surgery, Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine, Philadelphia 19107, USA.

The authors present a case report showing successful autogenous calcaneal bone graft stabilization of a first metatarsal closing base wedge osteotomy nonunion. The authors discuss the complications and clinical sequelae associated with first metatarsal base wedge osteotomy nonunions. The patient's clinical presentation, surgical procedure, and postoperative course are discussed. Comparative preoperative and postoperative objective gait analyses are presented. This approach to first metatarsal nonunion salvage appears to be clinically successful with a 15-month follow-up period.
