Diagnosis and Treatment of Abductor Hallucis Focal Dystonia With Botulinum Toxin Injection: A Case Presentation
Orthopedic foot deformities can result from neurologic conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, and cerebral palsy . In such cases, imaging studies of the foot are often not diagnostic of the underlying problem. Although it is not always considered, electrodiagnostic assessment can detect dystonia, spasticity, and neuropathy . The information gained from these electrodiagnostic studies can guide therapy, including medical and surgical management. This case study describes the successful evaluation and treatment of abducted hallux deformity by using electrodiagnostic testing and botulinum injection treatment.
