Great Toe

Two cases of osteochondral lesions of the proximal phalanx of the great toe at the interphalangeal joint are presented. This condition is characterized by pain, swelling, and tenderness at the interphalangeal joint. The roentgenographic characteristics resemble osteochondritis dissecans. Curettage and bone grafting to the lesion is effective. These conditions in adolescent soccer players may be caused by chronic repetitive overloading of the interphalangeal joint using soccer shoes with soft, supple, and narrow toe boxes.

Salter Harris

Epiphyseal fractures account for about one fifth of pediatric fractures. Approximately 10% cause major growth disturbances, depending on the location and type of the fracture and the skeletal maturity of the child. Intra-articular Salter-Harris type IV fractures are rare, carry a poor prognosis, and almost always need surgical reduction to prevent deformity. We present a case report of a pediatric patient who returned to normal function after the successful surgical reduction of a Salter-Harris type IV fracture in the proximal phalanx of the great toe.

A case of traumatic hallux varus due to avulsion fracture of the lateral side of the base of proximal phalanx was reported. The lateral instability of the first metatarsophalangeal joint was believed to be due to the disruption of adductor hallucis function. It was successfully managed by minimally invasive extensor hallucis brevis tenodesis.

Adductor Hallucis

Each of six below-the-knee amputation specimens were transfixed to a wooden block and mounted to a jig on an amputee testing device preloaded with 5 N applied to the proximal phalanx and displaced at a constant rate of 2 mm/min. Load displacement curves were generated for the intact joint and after sequential incisions of the lateral capsule, the adductor hallucis, and the lateral slip of the flexor hallucis brevis tendon, which caused varus dislocation of the hallux. An extensor hallucis brevis tenodesis was performed after the varus dislocation. Division of the lateral capsule, the adductor, and the flexor brevis reduced the force required to displace the hallux by 42.2%, an additional 25.2%, and a further 14.2%, respectively. Use of the extensor hallucis brevis tenodesis restored the load displacement curves to that of the normal joint. We concluded that the extensor hallucis brevis tendon may be useful as a tenodesis for reconstructing the deformity of acquired hallux varus.
