ABSTRACT

Objective. To show that the Osteotomy designed at the Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación (LP-INR) with a memory staple for the fifth toe supraductus Congenital deformity diminishes the weight bearing under the fifth metatarsal head descending the proximal phalanx keeps the articular integrity avoiding complications and pain. Material and methods. From December of 2002 to January of 2005, in 17 patients, 26 feet, male 11 (64.7%), female 6 (35.2%), patients with supraductus fifth toe deformity. The clinical scale of Maryland was applied at 3 months postoperative. The AOFAS scale was applied preoperative and postoperative from pain, gait an alignment. Results. Maryland scale was seen excellent in 14 patients (84.3%) good in one (5.8%) regular in one (5.8%) from 75 to 50 points, an fair in one patient (5.8%) . The AOFAS scale for forefoot at preoperative was 55 ± 8 and postoperative 90 ± 5. With a significantly Student t at the preoperative an postoperatively ‹ 0.05. Discussion. We concluded that the LP-INR Osteotomy for the treatment of the fifth toe supraductus Congenital deformity, provides a correct alignment diminishes the weight bearing over the fifth metatarsal head avoid tissue and bone resection that condition functional and esthetic complications.
