Tearing or attenuation of the plantar plate often will result in crossover or hammertoe deformity with hyperextension of the MTP joint. Some patients are able to have resolution of painful symptoms with conservative treatment but for those that fail these measures, surgical fixation of the plantar plate is indicated. While, there have been some described techniques for direct repair of the plantar plate, we present a surgical technique through a dorsal approach with a Weil osteotomy which accomplishes great clinical correction of the plantar plate tear and associated toe deformity as well as relief of patient\u2019s pain. Additionally, we believe this technique is safe, efficient and reproducible.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1071100714536540","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,21]],"date-time":"2014-05-21T23:34:33Z","timestamp":1400715273000},"page":"730-739","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Dorsal Approach for Plantar Plate Repair With Weil Osteotomy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Troy S.","family":"Watson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Foot and Ankle Institute, Desert Orthopaedic Center, Las Vegas, NV, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dorian Y.","family":"Reid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Foot and Ankle Institute, Desert Orthopaedic Center, Las Vegas, NV, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Timothy L.","family":"Frerichs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North Florida Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center, Tallahassee, FL, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cpm.2010.11.002"},{"key":"bibr2-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1071100713491728"},{"key":"bibr3-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079301400601"},{"key":"bibr4-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079501600804"},{"key":"bibr5-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00276-007-0188-2"},{"key":"bibr6-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fas.2007.01.001"},{"key":"bibr7-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.04.1481"},{"key":"bibr8-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.87B11.16590"},{"key":"bibr9-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079401500508"},{"key":"bibr10-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3113\/FAI.2007.1223"},{"key":"bibr11-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.btf.0000126167.34582.c8"},{"key":"bibr12-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1071100712471825"},{"key":"bibr13-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1938640012463060"},{"key":"bibr14-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1938640012463061"},{"key":"bibr15-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110070502600903"},{"key":"bibr16-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3113\/FAI.2012.0301"},{"key":"bibr17-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fcl.2012.06.004"},{"key":"bibr18-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.jfas.2012.05.009"},{"key":"bibr19-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/0147-7447-19870101-15"},{"key":"bibr20-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1938640010397342"},{"key":"bibr21-1071100714536540","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079601700107"}],"container-title":["Foot &amp; Ankle International"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1071100714536540","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/1071100714536540","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1071100714536540","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T21:23:50Z","timestamp":1777411430000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1071100714536540"}},"subtitle":["Operative Technique"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,21]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1071100714536540"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1071100714536540","relation":{},"ISSN":["1071-1007","1944-7876"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1071-1007","type":"print"},{"value":"1944-7876","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,21]]}}}
