- Hallux valgus is well-entrenched misnomer
- Valgus refers to deformity in vertical plane, apex medial
- Hallux valgus is deformity of 1st metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint in horizontal plane, apex medial
- Correct term would be hallux abductus
- Some sources use term hallux abductovalgus
- Metatarsus primus varus is also misnomer
- Varus is deformity in vertical plane, apex lateral
- Metatarsus primus varus is deformity of 1st tarsometatarsal (TMT) joint in horizontal plane, apex lateral
- Some sources use term metatarsus primus adductus
- Hallux valgus is well-entrenched misnomer
