Although open techniques have shown good outcomes, no technique has been shown to be superior to other techniques.

The technique used in this study resulted in stable internal fixation; however, 1 screw was used in intramedullary fashion in the majority of cases. The purpose of this study is to review the early outcomes of MICA.

The secondary outcomes included postoperative complications. A total of 91 feet underwent MICA to correct symptomatic HV deformity.
