Toe Shortening Surgery with "Smart Toe" Implant
Case description
A hammertoe is a deformity of the second, third or fourth toe. In this condition, the toe is bent at the middle joint, so that it resembles a hammer. This man had a long second "hammer toe" that he wanted to shorten and straighten. The "Smart Toe" implant was used to hold his toe in the new shortened and straight position. One of the most common post operative problems with this procedure is that the big toe pushes the second toe towards the third and then heals at that abnormal angle. The smart toe prevents this.
