Bunion surgery is done via either the traditional open method or a keyhole/ MIS method. It depends on the severity of the bunion, and what technique the surgeon is competent and proficient in.
My first option would always be to offer a keyhole correction for a patient if I feel the bunion is suitable for such correction. The advantages for keyhole surgery are plenty.
