This study concerns five females who have undergone an operation according to Keller technique, and necessitated a reoperation for unsatisfactory results at the first operation. The study proves that resection of the phalanx leads, in time, to the formation of a coating fibrous cartilage. Such layer tends to reproduce a structure that is similar to an articulation, even though missing a hyaline cartilage. This microscopical structure supports well the load that is directed along the perpendicular axis of the phalanx, preserving, in time, a sufficient gliding capacity between the two surfaces, with optimal limitation of the natural wear-out process.</p>","PeriodicalId":76649,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of foot surgery","volume":"31 4","pages":"355-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12574472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
