Improving Outcomes with Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery, By Dr Nicholas Yeo

Minimally invasive or ‘keyhole surgery’ is a growing and popular option for treating bunions, offering faster postoperative healing, reliable outcomes, and reduced postoperative risks. In the past five years, there has been a 30% rise in patients seeking specialised care for bunion-related issues, including bunion surgery. The Foot and Ankle Service now provides an advanced keyhole procedure for bunion treatment, which allows for same-day surgery with minimal discomfort. However, it’s important to note that this minimally invasive approach is suitable for individuals with mild-to-moderate bunion deformities.
