Oblique osteotomy of the metatarsal neck angled distal lateral to proximal medial and sliding the head/neck medially

Answer 4

Reverse Wilson

Question 5

V cut made from lateral to medial with apex in metatarsal head and shifting the head medially. This piece is mostly stable in the frontal and sagittal planes

Chevron

Question 6

Distal closing wedge with apex proximal lateral. Technical difficulty and fixation difficulty are both increased because the when the wedge closes you have a transverse cut. Make this wedge more distally (away from cortical bone) for better bone growth

Answer 6

Mercado
