| Abstract: | We report the case of a young patient who presented with symptomatic bilateral cleft epiphyses of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. She has become asymptomatic with radiological union of the clefts after prolonged follow-up, but is left with moderate hallux rigidus. This condition was thought previously only to be a radiological variant, with no documentation of symptomatic presentation or radiological resolution of the cleft. |
