Partite great toe sesamoids are common, especially with hallux abducto valgus. This study theorizes on the structural components leading to symptomatic bipartite sesamoids.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Anatomy
  • Podiatry

Background:

  • The great toe sesamoids are frequently discussed in medical literature.
  • Normal anatomic variations of partite metatarsophalangeal sesamoids are well-documented.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a theory explaining the frequent occurrence of symptomatic partite sesamoids.
  • To investigate the association between symptomatic partite sesamoids and hallux abducto valgus.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on great toe sesamoid anatomy.
  • Analysis of internal and external structural components of bipartite metatarsal sesamoidal joints.

Main Results:

  • A high incidence of symptomatic partite sesamoids is believed to exist.

  • Symptomatic partite sesamoids are particularly common in cases of hallux abducto valgus.

    • Conclusions:

    • The inherent structural components of bipartite metatarsal sesamoidal joints may predispose them to symptomatology.
    • Understanding these components is crucial for diagnosing and managing conditions involving the great toe sesamoids.
