Abstract
The journey through the history of minimally invasive surgery in foot and ankle procedures reveals a remarkable narrative of innovation and progress. Minimally invasive surgery has been adopted in various foot and ankle procedures including elective and trauma surgery. Most notably, the transformative impact of minimally invasive bunion surgery, spanning 3 generations of techniques, showcases a relentless pursuit of precision and efficiency. The incorporation of beveled screws in the latest generation stands as a testament to the ongoing biomechanical and research-driven advancements that contribute to the ultimate stability and success of minimally invasive procedures.
