The correct answer is:
As long as he is asymptomatic and able to wear shoes without discomfort, no surgery should be considered. There is no data on the long-term disability of this deformity which would justify a large surgery in this young foot. If surgery is needed the suggested combination is a reasonable approach, which requires identifying all the deformities and correcting each one.
