Abstract

Rigid claw toes are a common complaint. Multiple procedures have been described for solving this condition, but fusion remains the most common, with reproducible results. Various methods to fuse the proximal interphalangeal joint and different stabilization methods have been proposed and used. In this article, the various alternatives are summarized and the authors' preferred technique is explained.
