An Updated Nerve Sparing Surgical Technique for Addressing Morton's Neuroma

Morton's neuroma is a common painful pathology that occurs in the plantar forefoot. Many treatment options exist and surgical management is used after conservative treatment options fail. While within the literature, there is a high success rate with primary neurectomy procedures, the risk of recurrence of symptoms or "stump neuromas" remains difficult to treat and can lead to debilitating pain. This article expands on a previously published article to discuss an update on a nerve sparing, microneurosurgical, procedure for the management of Morton's neuromas.
