Fracture and dislocation of the four lateral metatarsophalangeal joints - A case report

Fracture and dislocation of the four lateral metatarsal head and neck at the metatarsophalangeal joint, which may be associated with a hyperextension force, axial load, and additional rotating force, has rarely been reported. The patient was a 32-year-old man who sustained the injury in a motor vehicle accident. Manual reduction was easily performed but maintenance of reduction was difficult, due to the associated fractures of the metatarsal necks. Thus percutaneous internal fixation with Kirshner's wires was required.
