title: Crossover second toe deformity.
abstract: The crossover second toe deformity occurs when the lateral collateral ligament and joint capsule of the second metatarsophalangeal joint deteriorate. The second toe initially deviates in a medial direction but with time deviates dorsally and crosses up and over the great toe. A total of 17 patients (22 toes) were evaluated and 11 patients (15 toes) underwent surgical correction. A 90 degree satisfactory rate was noted at 42 months follow-up.
