Abstract
Summary Morton's neuroma is a painful forefoot disorder caused by thickening and fibrosis of an interdigital nerve. The aetiology is unknown. On physical examination, care should be taken to differentiate it from metatarsalgia or joint synovitis/instability. The lateral squeeze test is often positive. The sensitivity and specificity of MRI and ultrasound for confirming the diagnosis has been questioned. Surgery is considered if symptoms persist after 3 months of non-operative treatment. In this article we describe our recommended surgical technique for neuroma resection.
