Abstract:
There are few reports of the surgical treatment for late stage Freiburg's disease with flattening of the metatarsal head and osteoarthritis. We describe the results of the surgical treatment of ten consecutive patients with advanced stage Freiburg's disease (Smillie's stage V), using a technique that has not been published previously.
