Midfoot osteoarthrosis can impede daily activity and affect lifestyle, due to pain and footwear restrictions. A case is presented of an arthrodesis of the 2nd and 3rd metatarsocuneiform joints (MCJs), undertaken using a locking plate system, to treat painful degenerative changes that had been symptomatic for 6 months.
Arthrodesis of the 2nd and 3rd MCJs using a locking plate system achieved adequate fusion and the presenting complaint was resolved. The patient was delighted with the surgical outcome.
