[Our experience with surgery of the rheumatoid metatarsus. 150 cases].

The authors report on the results of their experience with surgery of the rheumatoid metatarsus (95 patients operated on--150 operations). The operation most frequently performed was the Lelievre metatarsian resection-alignment. They confirm the advantage of this type of surgery, which provides very handicapped patients with substantial relief, both of pain and of the functional troubles, despite the nature of the disease involved.
