Disclosed are methods for correcting hallux varus joint deformity in a foot. The method can include forming a first hole in a first metatarsal of the foot from a medial side to a lateral side of the first metatarsal. A second hole can be formed in a proximal phalanx of a hallux that extends from a medial side to a lateral side of the proximal phalanx. The method includes passing a suture through the first hole, along a lateral side of a first metatarsal phalangeal joint, and through the second hole. The suture can be tensioned between the first and second holes to reduce the hallux to a rectus position relative to the first metatarsal. The suture can be secured within the first and second holes with a first interference screw inserted within the first hole and a second interference screw inserted within the second hole.
