Abstract
- The 4th and 5th metatarsocuboid joint arthritis causes moderate functional deficit during walking. It is difficult to obtain good results with conservative treatment. The arthrodesis of the affected joints can be a possible surgical option, but with a limited success. We report two cases of the 4th and 5th metatarsocuboid joint arthritis managed with anchovy tendon interposition arthroplaty.
