Radiological union was present in 90% of patients at the mean review time of six years. Twenty-four patients had significant metatarsalgia before operation and only two failed to improve afterwards. Excellent or good subjective results were reported in 94% of patients at r...

Methods:We retrospectively evaluated 60 patients who received an arthrodesis of the MTP-I between January 2008 and June 2010. With 20 patients each we performed a locking plate fixation with lag screw, arthrodesis w...
