  • Title: Percutaneous Reduction of a Dislocation of the Interphalangeal Joint of the Great Toe: A Case Report.
    Author: Takeda S, Nishimura A, Yamaji S, Tabuchi A, Sudo A, Hirata H.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2020; 59(5):1072-1075. PubMed ID: 32345509.
    Abstract:
    Dorsal dislocation of the interphalangeal joint of the great toe is quite rare. Closed reduction is often attempted in the emergency setting, but this measure is seldom successful because of invagination of the sesamoid-plantar plate complex into the interphalangeal space. Generally, open reduction is indicated when closed reduction fails. In this report, percutaneous reduction of the incarcerated sesamoid was performed under local and intraarticular anesthesia at our outpatient clinic, leading to successful reduction.
