The surgical management of central metatarsalgia.
Foot & Ankle International 2002 May
Seventeen patients (20 feet) underwent Weil osteotomies of the second and third metatarsals for the treatment of central metatarsalgia and were reviewed at an average of 18 months postoperatively. Fourteen patients were completely satisfied with the results of their surgery (85%), one patient was satisfied, one patient satisfied with reservations and one patient was dissatisfied. The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society clinical rating scale improved by an average of 44 points. One patient had complete recurrence of symptoms, eight out of the 40 toes involved in surgery were floating, four toes were stiff, there were three cases of infection, and transfer metatarsalgia affected the fourth metatarsal in one case. The Weil osteotomy is an effective and safe procedure for the treatment of central metatarsalgia.
