ABSTRACT

Morton’s neuroma is a compressive neuropathy affecting the common digital nerves of the lower extremities; is a relatively common disease prevalent in females, whose clinical diagnosis and treatment must be mastered in order to improve the functionality of patients suffer. Below we present an overview of this entity for their understanding in a simple way.
