Deformidad tipo Checkrein del Hállux y dedos menores del pie sin fractura previa asociada.

We present a bibliographic review and a description of the surgical technique in checkrein deformity of the hallux and lesser toes. This dynamic deformity causes a significant difficulty in walking and prevents patients from practicing any sport, since in the stance phase of gait toes are forced into maximum plantar flexion and end up trapped under the foot. In cases in which this is not associated with a bone fracture, the clinical suspicion causing the injury is a subclinical compartment syndrome. Treatment described in this work consists of a Z-plasty and the application of a pulvertaft suture in the flexor hallux longus. In the rest of the toes, any additional surgical procedure is not needed, as the deformity is corrected at the retromalleolar level
