    Telescoping osteotomy effectively treats metatarsalgia, offering permanent symptom relief for over 80% of patients. This surgical technique for lesser metatarsal issues is simple and reliable.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Podiatric Medicine
    • Biomechanical Engineering

    Background:

    • Metatarsalgia is a common foot condition causing pain in the ball of the foot.
    • Rheumatoid arthritis can be associated with metatarsalgia in a significant patient subset.
    • Established cases of pressure metatarsalgia require effective surgical interventions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the outcomes of telescoping osteotomy for lesser metatarsals in patients with metatarsalgia.
    • To report on improvements in assessment and technique modifications.
    • To discuss the management of potential complications.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 508 feet in 310 patients undergoing telescoping osteotomy.
    • Analysis of patient demographics (predominantly female, mean age 55 years).

  • Follow-up duration ranging from 1 to 12 years.

    • Main Results:

    • Telescoping osteotomy demonstrated effectiveness in treating pressure metatarsalgia.
    • Over 80% of patients experienced permanent relief of symptoms.
    • The procedure is characterized as simple and reliable for established cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Telescoping osteotomy is a highly effective surgical option for established metatarsalgia.
    • The procedure offers a high success rate for symptom relief.
    • Improvements in technique and assessment enhance patient outcomes.
