Rheumatoid Forefoot Deformity and Rheumatoid Arthritis Surgery

Rheumatoid forefoot issues are often a very debilitating and painful condition for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The pain is essentially due to early inflammation and delayed cartilage damage, arthritis and dislocation of the toes at the metatarsal heads.

If rheumatoid forefoot deformity is caught early, correction of the toe position and realignment procedures can be used to save the joints and decrease the risk of dislocation and arthritis. If left untreated, rheumatoid forefoot arthritis surgery is usually treated with a removal of the metatarsal heads and realignment of the toes.
