Abstract
- The first metatarsophalangeal joint injury is common in professional soldiers and athletes. But this was rarely reported. A professional soldier has varus instability in the first metatarsophalangeal joint due to hyperextension. In the MR Imaging, weavy appearance in lateral collateral ligament and high signal change in plantar plate was shown. So he has surgical treatment using reconstructive procedure. At first, 4th extensor digitorum longus tendon was splitted longitudinally and harvested, second triangular shape reconstruction on lateral joint line was done using harvested tendon. One year later, fifteen degrees was limited compared with intact side. Reconstruction using 4th extensor digitorum longus tendon in traumatic dynamic hallux varus was good method.
