It develops when your big toe starts leaning into your second toe, which makes the joint grow larger and protrude. You can read more about <a href=\"\/foot-specialist-perth\/\">bunions and other foot deformities<\/a> on my website.<\/p><p>Over the past century, over 100 different procedures have been developed to address this condition. The most popular type of <a href=\"https:\/\/orthoinfo.aaos.org\/en\/treatment\/bunion-surgery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bunion surgery<\/a> is called an osteotomy, which means we cut and realign the bone to straighten your big toe.<\/p><p>There are multiple types of osteotomy and some foot surgeons prefer keyhole and others stick to open surgery. Here at The Foot &amp; Ankle Centre in Perth, our foot specialist prefers the classic approach (open surgery) simply because the evidence is not there that keyhole is better.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-33388d7 e-con-full quote-wrapper e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"33388d7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b4edb0a quote-icon elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"2b4edb0a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"100\" height=\"67\" viewBox=\"0 0 100 67\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M44.1539 43.6891C46.3034 55.7166 37.0639 66.8874 21.5914 66.8874C6.11882 66.8874 -2.26138 46.4812 0.532019 28.8649C3.12147 12.529 20.8672 2.29499 33.7159 0.0342542C34.4191 -0.0886282 35.1393 0.122989 35.664 0.606631C36.1888 1.09027 36.4581 1.7907 36.3925 2.50113L35.9342 7.92048C35.8651 8.93031 35.1266 9.7681 34.133 9.96362C20.2806 12.3114 12.0379 33.0634 20.5189 30.5782C29.3276 28.0037 42.0045 31.6685 44.1539 43.6891ZM99.6919 43.6891C97.5425 31.6616 84.8633 28.0106 76.0523 30.5874C67.5736 33.068 75.8232 12.316 89.6664 9.97278C90.6604 9.77799 91.3993 8.93979 91.4676 7.92965L91.9259 2.5103C91.9915 1.79986 91.7222 1.09944 91.1974 0.615793C90.6727 0.132151 89.9525 -0.0794661 89.2493 0.0434163C76.4029 2.30186 58.6572 12.5382 56.0654 28.8741C53.272 46.4858 61.6522 66.8966 77.1248 66.8966C92.5973 66.8966 101.839 55.7189 99.6919 43.6891Z\" fill=\"black\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e34c95e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2e34c95e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cIn open surgery, we make 1 cut of about 5 cm whereas in keyhole surgery you\u2019ll have 4 little cuts.
