Acquired hallux varus secondary to traumatic disruption of the lateral joint structures of the 1st MTPJ is uncommon and has only been reported in the literature once previously.(4) We present a case of traumatic hallux varus that is unique since the deformity is dynamic in nature. In our patient the hallux remained reduced on standing weight bearing films, and luxated only during fluoroscopic stress testing. We also describe our surgical correction where a soft tissue anchor alone was utilized to stabilize the joint through repair of the lateral capsule and collateral ligament. One year following the described repair the patient reports no limitations in performing activities of daily living, and complains of only mild pain with recreational activities.
