Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Medicine - Department of Orthopedic Surgery Summary: Metatarsal fractures are common injuries in the outpatient orthopedic setting. Although often technically simple, can lead to an inordinate number of unsatis{uFB01}ed patients. The objective of our study was to evaluate the results obtained using an anterograde percutaneous technique for metatarsal fractures. We performed a prospective study in which we evaluated the fracture location, mechanism of trauma, associated comorbidities, and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society{u2019}s functional score for postoperative clinical assessments. The most common fracture location was the metatarsal neck fracture. Involvement of multiple fractures was more common than isolated fractures and low-energy trauma was more frequent than high energy trauma. The surgical technique proposed was effective for treating metatarsal fractures and had lower complication rates compared with other established techniques
