What is keyhole Bunion Surgery?
Keyhole bunion surgery is a modern technique to fix painful bunions without using a large incision to expose the bones before cutting and resetting them.
The surgeon will make tiny little holes through a very small cut, no more than 3 to 4 mm on the inside part of your foot.
The small incisions are used to be able to cut the bone involved in forming the bunion deformity. Using a specialised bur specifically made for keyhole bunion surgery. Once the bone is cut, it is reset under direct x-ray visualisation into the corrected position, thus reducing the deformity of the bunion and realigning the big toe in a straight position.
Specialised screws for bunion surgery are used to hold the bone in the new position whilst it heals. All this is done through small incisions without exposing the bone and under direct X-ray visualisation.The benefits of keyhole bunion surgery over traditional surgery are generally that you get much less post-operative pain. You can weight bear immediately with or without crutches in a specialised sandal. You will need to rest and elevate just like traditional surgery, but much less. There are less likely surgical wound problems, you are less likely to get joint stiffness and hence return to all sports and high heels without having the significant risk of joint stiffness with traditional surgery. You can also correct the deformity when it comes to large bunions much more fully without a fusion procedure of the midfoot. The risks of joint stiffness are also reduced due to early mobilisation. Physiotherapy is not necessary post-operatively, and the outcomes are more favourable than the traditional bunion techniques.
Why Choose Our Bunion Surgery?
Complications
Who is a suitable candidate?
Bunion surgery can be performed in most bunion deformities whether small or large. Typically, you will require good bone quality, so it is unsuitable for patients who have osteoporosis. This is due to the nature of the operation requiring small incisions and less exposure of bone, therefore the quality of bone is important to be able to manipulate and reset it.
Furthermore, if you have arthritis in the big toe joint, then you do have a chance of joint stiffness and not suitable for minimally invasive bunion surgery if this is significant. Those patients may need to opt for a more traditional operation such as a fusion operation.

You may require pain relief for two to three days, which is more of a simple pain relief rather than heavy opioids. You will remain mobile.
