The purpose of this study was to investigate the suitability of bioabsorbable materials for fixation of extended distal chevron osteotomy and Akin osteotomy for the treatment of moderate to severe hallux valgus. We performed a retrospective analysis of extended distal chevron osteotomy and Akin osteotomy for the treatment of moderate to severe hallux valgus (33 patients, 42 feet). Fixation of extended distal chevron osteotomy and Akin osteotomy was performed using poly-l-lactic acid pins and polylactic acid/polyglycolic acid copolyme
