Syndactylization for the treatment of fifth toe deformities.
The authors describe a procedure to syndactylize the fourth and fifth toes for the correction of failed fifth toe arthroplasty, flail fifth toe, overriding fifth toe, cocked-up fifth toe, heloma molle, and congenital digitus minimus varus. The procedure is technically simple and produces good cosmetic results.
