Summary
Metatarsal fractures represent 3-7% of all fractures of the body and 35% of fractures of the foot and have a rate of 75 new cases per 10,000 persons per year.
The goal of treatment is to achieve a correct reduction of fracture, to avoid prolonged disability and preservation of both soft tissues and bony alignment.
Metaizeau's technique in these fracture of the metatarsal bone respects the soft tissues surrounding the fracture and the periosteum at the fracture site.
