Freiberg's infraction is osteonecrosis of the lesser metatarsal heads, most commonly affecting adolescent females. Bilateral Freiberg's disease is rare, with only a few cases reported. Conservative management is the mainstay of treatment. Surgical management includes the excision of osteophytes and loose chondral flaps, microfracture, corrective osteotomy, and debridement of the metatarsal head, often with unpredictable outcomes. We report a rare case of a 17-year-old girl with bilateral Freiberg's disease who was treated with Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis (AMIC), achieving excellent radiological and functional outcomes.
弗赖伯格病是跖骨头较小部位的骨坏死,最常见于青春期女性。双侧弗赖伯格病很罕见,仅有少数病例报道。保守治疗是主要的治疗方法。手术治疗包括切除骨赘和游离软骨瓣、微骨折、矫正截骨术以及跖骨头清创术,但其结果往往不可预测。我们报告一例罕见的17岁双侧弗赖伯格病女孩,采用自体基质诱导软骨生成(AMIC)治疗,取得了优异的影像学和功能结果。
