Correction of Crossover Toe Deformity by Arthroscopically Assisted Plantar Plate Tenodesis.


ABSTRACT: Plantar plate deficiency is the major pathology causing metatarsophalangeal joint instability. As the joint subluxates dorsally, the lumbrical is tethered at the medial side of the joint by the deep metatarsal ligament and becomes a deforming force for the development of crossover toe deformity. Plantar plate repair or reconstruction is a logical surgical treatment option. This can be performed through a dorsal or plantar approach. The purpose of this technical note is to report a minimally invasive technique of crossover toe deformity correction by suturing the plantar plate to the extensor tendon. It is indicated for symptomatic crossover toe deformity that is not responsive to nonsurgical treatment. It is contraindicated if the metatarsophalangeal joint is degenerated, destructed, or dislocated, or there is interdigital neuroma at the sides of the deformed toe, or the deformity is caused by bony deformities of the metatarsal head or the proximal phalanx.
