Hammer Toe Release   

Hammer Toe Release Joint resection can be used to treat a toe suffering from hammertoe syndrome. In this procedure an incision is made at the top (Anterior) of the effected toe joint. The end of the bone is removed to allow the toe to straighten completely. Pins or K-wires are temporarily used to hold the toe straight. The pins are usually removed three to four weeks after the surgery.
