Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Lower extremity surgical procedures in patients with Werner's syndrome are uncommon, and for this reason they are rarely reported in the literature. In this report, we present the case of a 39-year-old man with a history of Werner's syndrome, and a malunited right hallux varus and first ray insufficiency after previous bunionectomy performed 4 years earlier. Further reconstructive surgery involved forefoot osteotomy and arthrodesis with internal fixation, and the patient ultimately healed the soft tissues and bones, despite delayed wound healing.
