Treatment of patients with hammer-like deformity of the first toe
Our proposed method for the rapid elimination of hammer-like deformity of the first toe is illustrated by the figure. The tendon of the long flexor of the first toe 1 is exposed in the projection of the main phalanx 2 from the skin incision 5 along the plantar surface, then it is cut off at the site of attachment and passed through the bony canal 4 drilled closer to the base, a tendon loop 3 is formed on the main phalanx 2 .. the interphalangeal joint is arthrodesised 6 and fix the needle 8, passed through the end phalanx 7.
