AbH, PF, FHB, and FDB thickness, cross-sectional area and stiffness were measured with an ultrasonography device. For stiffness measurements, Shear Wave Velocity (SWV) of the assessed soft tissues was calculated using a customized software program.\nResults\nMean and standard deviation of SWV of PF, AbH, FHB, FDB, and thickness of PF, AbH, FHB, FDB, and cross-sectional area of AbH, FHB, FDB in individuals with HV were 7.6 \u00b1 1.0 m\/sec, 2.8 \u00b1 0.3 m\/sec, 2.6 \u00b1 0.4 m\/sec, and 3.4 \u00b1 0.2 m\/sec, 3.3 \u00b1 0.5 mm, 11.4 \u00b1 2.2 mm, 16.5 \u00b1 1.9 mm, 8.9 \u00b1 1.8 mm, 2.4 \u00b1 0.5 cm2, 2.7 \u00b1 0.5 cm2, 1.9 \u00b1 0.6 cm2, respectively. Mean and standard deviation of SWV of PF, AbH, FHB, FDB and thickness of PF, AbH, FHB, FDB, and cross-sectional area of AbH, FHB, FDB in controls groups were 7.6 \u00b1 1.2 m\/sec, 2.3 \u00b1 0.3 m\/sec, 2.3 \u00b1 0.4 m\/sec, and 3.4 \u00b1 0.4 m\/sec, 3.3 \u00b1 0.5 mm, 9.7 \u00b1 2.1 mm, 14.5 \u00b1 1.4 mm, 9.7 \u00b1 1.2 mm, 2.1 \u00b1 0.3 cm2, 2.3 \u00b1 0.4 cm2, 2.1 \u00b1 0.4 cm2, respectively. Individuals with HV had lower AbH and FHB thickness, cross-sectional area and SWV, however FDB thickness and cross-sectional area were higher in individuals with HV compared to that of individuals without HV (p &lt; 0.05). PF thickness (p = 0.273), SWV of PF (p = 0.979) and FDB (p = 0.295) were similar in both groups.\nConclusion\nOur results suggest that individuals with HV had lower AbH and FHB stiffness, however PF and FDB stiffness were similar in HV and control group. In addition, AbH and FHB thickness and cross-sectional area were lower in individuals with HV; however, FDB thickness and cross-sectional area were higher in individuals with HV compared to that of individuals without HV.\n\n\nLevel of Evidence\nLevel III, Diagnostic Study.\nER -<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,5]],"date-time":"2019-04-05T12:46:38Z","timestamp":1554468398000},"page":"282-286","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Mechanical properties and morphologic features of intrinsic foot muscles and plantar fascia in individuals with hallux valgus"],"prefix":"10.5152","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Serkan","family":"TA\u015e","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alp","family":"\u00c7ET\u0130N","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3111","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,6]]},"reference":[{"issue":"17","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1650","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.H.01630","article-title":"The pathogenesis of hallux valgus","volume":"93","author":"Perera","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"21","DOI":"10.1186\/1757-1146-3-21","article-title":"Prevalence of hallux valgus in the general population: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"3","author":"Nix","year":"2010","journal-title":"J\u00a0Foot Ankle Res"},{"issue":"1","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"45","DOI":"10.14336\/AD.2015.0914","article-title":"Quality of life impact related to foot health in a sample of older people with hallux valgus","volume":"7","author":"Lopez","year":"2016","journal-title":"Aging Dis"},{"issue":"3","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009_bib4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"396","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.20396","article-title":"Impact of hallux valgus severity on general and foot-specific health-related quality of life","volume":"63","author":"Menz","year":"2011","journal-title":"Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken.)"},{"issue":"7","key":"10.1016\/j.aott.2019.03.009_bib5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"923","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joca.2010.03.011","article-title":"Are hallux valgus and big toe pain associated with impaired quality of life?
