Dorsal-approach open reduction for irreducible dislocation of the hallux interphalangeal joint: a case series

ConclusionWe experienced two cases of irreducible dislocation of the hallux IP joint. One of our cases was reclassified from Miki type 2 to type 1, but we did not overlook the failed closed reduction, as we performed CT. Hence, we recommend additional lateral-view X-rays and/or CT imaging.
