The first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTPJ) and the distal first metatarsal can be exposed from several approaches. The dorsal-medial approach is the most widespread technique taught for first MTPJ exposure. The Comprehensive Textbook of Foot Surgery (2) advocates the "universal" dorsal-medial approach to allow full
