Freiberg's disease is a form of osteochondrosis of a metatarsal head that often affects the second metatarsophalangeal joint, and that affects females more often than males. Repetitive microtrauma, osteonecrosis, and stress overload are the main factors in its pathophysiology. Surgical intervention is indicated in advanced cases wherein nonoperative treatment has failed. In this report, we describe the case of a young female who had Freiberg's disease localized to the third metatarsal head bilaterally and who was successfully treated with peroneus longus tendon transplantation.
弗莱伯格病是一种跖骨头骨软骨病，常影响第二跖趾关节，且女性比男性更易患病。反复微创伤、骨坏死和应力过载是其病理生理学的主要因素。手术干预适用于非手术治疗失败的晚期病例。在本报告中，我们描述了一例双侧第三跖骨头弗莱伯格病的年轻女性病例，采用腓骨长肌腱移植治疗获得成功。
