ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To compare ultrasonographic size of morton's neuroma measured to actual size MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-two (twenty-eight patients) of symptomic Morton's neuroma were measured by ultrasonography preoperatively and by manual method that designed by authors intraoperatively from January, 2002 to May, 2003. Two results were stastically compared by paired T-test RESULTS: Except one, all of cases were women and the mean age of patients was 50.6 years (32-62 years). The most common associated disease was hallux valgus deformity (17 cases). Six of Morton's neuromas located on second intermetatarsal space, sixteen of them did third intemetatarsal space and ten of neuromas located simultaneously second and third intermetatarsal space. The ultrasonographic size of neuroma averaged 3.48 mm and real size was 3.99 mm. The size checked by manual method was larger than by ultrasound with statical meaning CONCLUSION: The size of Morton's interdigital neuroma checked by ultrasonography on plantar aspect is smaller than real size. If you checked Morton's interdigital neuroma size by ultrasonography, you can suspect that real size of Morton's interdigital neuroma is larger than that size.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To analyze clinical symptom and clinical course of accessory navicular bone and to evaluation of surgery of accessory navicular bone in sports players MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-two patients with accessory navicular bone were identified between January 1 2001 and June 30. 2003 RESULTS: Subjective satisfaction of 23 patients rated very satisfaction (16), satisfaction (6), common (1). Symptomatic pain were thoroughly disappeared at average 2.5 months (1~6 months) after operation. On one year follow-up, most of patients could maintain daily life and could go back to their sports carreer at 3 months. CONCLUSION: In athlete, excision of accessory navicular and reattachment of posteior tibial tendon to navicular like non-athletes is the best solution to management of symptomatic accessory navicular failed to manage conservatively

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: We report a case that iatrogenic dorsiflexion deformity after hallux valgus surgery treated successfully with crescenteric plantar flexion metatarsal osteotomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 43 years old female who suffered from left fore foot pain and deformity after hallux valgus surgery was evaluated. RESULTS: Preoperatively she did not put on ordinary shoes and had had persistent pain and discomfort on 1st metatarsal area. She also had a callus on plantar surface of 2nd metatarsal head. Simple AP and Lateral x-ray identified that 1st metatarsal bone had a 23 degree dorsiflexion deformity. For correction of deformity, plantarflexion crescenteric osteotomy was performed on proximal 1st metatarsal area. After operation, All of symptom eliciting patient was gone and 43 points of AOFAS scale preoperatively improve 100 points and the patient very satisfied. Post operative x-ray was showing complete correction of deformity. CONCLUSION: As a treatment of iatrogenic dorsiflexion deformity after hallux valgus surgery, the crescenteric plantar flexion osteotomy can be good and safe modality for correction.
