ABSTRACT

Introduction: Stenosing tenosynovitis is a condition characterized by the inflammation and constriction of the tendons within a fibro-osseous tunnel. Case Report We present a case of a 38-year-old man who presented with hallux saltans, a rare manifestation of this condition which was successfully treated with intralesional steroid injection. The patient experienced significant relief from pain and improved function following the procedure. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering stenosing tenosynovitis as a potential cause of hallux saltans and the efficacy of non-surgical interventions in its management.
