Varus deformity implies angulation toward the midline of the distal segment of bone or joint. Because the foot is at a right angle to the long axis of the leg, use of the term in the foot may be confusing. Varus of the ankle refers to a varus plafond or varus tilt of the talus in the mortise.

M20.10Hallux valgus (acquired), unspecified foot M20. 10 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M20. 10 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Metatarsus adductus, also known as metatarsus varus, is a common foot deformity noted at birth that causes the front half of the foot, or forefoot, to turn inward.
When the ankle joint lacks flexibility and upward, toes-to-shin movement of the foot (dorsiflexion) is limited, the condition is called equinus. Equinus is a result of tightness in the Achilles tendon or calf muscles (the soleus muscle and/or gastrocnemius muscle) and it may be either congenital or acquired.
Foot deformities are a wide array of conditions that affect the bones and tendons in the feet. A foot deformity can be as common as a bunion or a hammer toe, or rarer like fused toes (tarsal coalition), a club foot, a flat foot, mallet toes and various other foot conditions.
Equinus is the contracture of a joint- in this case the ankle joint. There are many reasons for this but ultimately what happens in the inability to place the heel on the ground properly when walking and loss of range of motion of joint.

Metatarsus primus varus is a foot deformity where the first metatarsal bone, which connects to the proximal phalanx bone of the big toe, is rotated and angled away from the second metatarsal bone.
Hallux valgus deformity is a very common pathological condition which commonly produces painful disability. It is characterised as a combined deformity with a malpositioning of the first metatarsophalangeal joint caused by a lateral deviation of the great toe and a medial deviation of the first metatarsal bone.
