[Localisation and pathogenesis of Morton's metatarsalgia (author's transl)]

Todays concept of Morton's metatarsalgia is seen as a pseudoneuroma of the plantar digital nerve. Since clinic and pathogenesis tally, one should abandon the idea that Morton's metatarsalgia consists of interdigital pain (mainly in the 3rd space) and accept it as a pfeudoneuroma due mainly to pressure on the plantar digital nerve.
