Info

There is a fracture of the distal phalanx of the little toe, which comprises a congenital fusion of the distal and middle phalanges (anatomical variant).
Case Discussion
The middle and distal phalanges of the 5th toe may be fused (symphalangism). Care should be taken to differentiate a fracture of such a phalanx from a natural joint line.
