One-stage correction for cavus-like deformity of both foot secondary to the Ledderhose disease: A case report

Severe flexion contracture of the hallux secondary to excessive fibroblastic proliferation in Ledderhose disease can result in the cavus-like deformity. There are few references in the literatures regarding the operative methods for rigid deformities combined with progressive gait disturbance in patients with plantar fibromatosis. We report a case who achieved satisfactory clinical and esthetic outcomes through one-stage surgical correction with bilateral subtotal plantar fasciectomy and the first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis.
