ABSTRACT
Forefoot and lesser digital pathology continues to be a challenging area of surgical correction for foot and ankle surgeons. Many techniques for the correction of digital deformities secondary to plantar plate rupture, regardless of planal dominance, have been described including direct repair and metatarsal shortening osteotomies for repair. The authors present a new technique for multiplanar correction of deformed lesser digits without direct repair of the plantar plate rupture utilizing a specialty suture. The technique utilizes a braided synthetic polyethylene Nylon suture, which has been traditionally used for open or arthroscopic shoulder labrum repair, for the stabilization of the lesser metatarsophalangeal joint. This novel technique guide for the correction of transverse and sagittal plane deformities of the digit at the metatarsophalangeal joint negates the need for a plantar incisional approach for plantar plate repair or metatarsal head osteotomy from a dorsal approach with augmented stabilization.
