Correction of crossover second toe deformity

Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 1996 Apr;13(2):269-78.

Abstract

Crossover second toe deformity is a common, but quite difficult, condition to treat. Its causes are multifactoral but resultant clinical findings are fairly constant. An aggressive surgical approach is mandatory to produce permanent correction. This involves a combination of soft-tissue and appropriate osseous reconstruction.
