N2  - BACKGROUND: Bunionette deformity is a painful bony prominence of the 5th metatarsal. We evaluated outcomes of using a Kramer osteotomy to treat this condition; CONCLUSIONS: The Kramer osteotomy is an effective treatment option in patients with bunionette deformity, with significant correction of the 4-5 IM<sup>2</sup> and MTP-5<sup>3</sup> angles and few complications; Copyright (c) 2017 European Foot and Ankle Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved; METHODS: Retrospective study of patients treated with a Kramer osteotomy from 2003 and 2016. Outcome measures included Foot Functional Index (FFI) and radiographic measurements; RESULTS: 38 patients (43feet) with an average follow-up of 55 months. Mean postoperative FFI<sup>1</sup> was 19.4. Mean 4-5 IMA<sup>2</sup> improved 3.9degree, from 8.3degree preoperatively to 4.4degree on final postoperative films (p<0.01). Mean MTP-5<sup>3</sup> angle improved 13.2degree from 13.6degree preoperatively to 0.4degree at final follow-up (p<0.01). There were 5 delayed unions (11.6%) and 1 non-union (2.3%)
