The affected segment was excised and reconstructed with an autograft from the proximal phalanx of her right third toe. At the 2-year follow-up, the graft was well taken, the articular cartilage was intact, and the range of motion was good. There was no evidence of osteoarthrosis.https://doi.org/10.1177/230949900901700226
