MORTON'S METATARSALGIA

Harry Winkler M.D.1, John B. Feltner M.D.1, and Paul Kimmelstiel M.D.1

1 CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA

The authors' findings agree essentially with those of Baker and Kuhn. We did not find changes which could be interpreted as evidence of active proliferation of either nerve tissue or connective tissue. The deposition of hyaline and collagenous material in itself accounts for the enlargement, in our opinion. We believe, therefore, that the process is essentially degenerative in nature, trauma being its most probable cause.
