Foot surgery

Foot surgery treats the deformities and pain that interfere with footwear and walking: hallux valgus ("bunion"), claw toes, Morton's neuroma, forefoot osteoarthritis and certain heel pains. These conditions, often endured for a long time, impair quality of life and can worsen over time. Modern techniques, particularly percutaneous and minimally invasive approaches, make it possible to correct deformities through very short incisions, with reduced post-operative pain and a rapid return to weight-bearing. The choice of technique is adapted to each foot, after a careful clinical examination and weight-bearing X-rays. In the majority of cases, the procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and walking resumes the same day with a specific post-operative shoe, without a cast or crutches in many situations. At Clinique Pasteur Tunis, foot surgery is performed by orthopedic surgeons who have mastered minimally invasive techniques, within a comfortable outpatient pathway with clear follow-up instructions and support until normal footwear can be worn again.
