Despite its name \u00abneuroma,\u00bb it is not a true nerve tumor but a reactive fibrotic response to chronic mechanical irritation of the nerve\u2014hence some authors\u2019 preference for the terms perineuromatous fibroma or interdigital neuralgia. The interdigital space between the 3rd and 4th toes is affected in 65 to 70% of cases, while the space between the 2nd and 3rd toes is affected in 20 to 30% of cases \u2014 the predilection for these spaces is explained by the anastomosis of the branches of the medial plantar nerve and the lateral plantar nerve in these spaces, creating a larger-caliber nerve that is particularly sensitive to compression by the transverse metatarsal ligament during weight-bearing. Morton\u2019s neuroma predominantly affects women (ratio 4 to 8 to 1), likely due to the more frequent use of narrow-toed and high-heeled shoes that compress the forefoot and increase pressure on the intermetatarsal spaces. The diagnosis is clinical, supported by musculoskeletal ultrasound (the first-line imaging method) or foot MRI in doubtful cases. Management begins with conservative measures (shoe modifications + orthotic insoles + ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injections) with a long-term success rate of 50 to 70%, and continues with surgical neurectomy (removal of the neuroma) for refractory cases, offering a complete relief rate of 85 to 90%.\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2>Pathophysiology and anatomy<\/h2>\n  <ul class=\"co-list\">\n    <li><strong>Anatomy of the intermetatarsal space:<\/strong> the common plantar digital nerves run in the intermetatarsal spaces under the deep transverse intermetatarsal ligament that connects the metatarsal heads together + when standing and walking \u2192 the metatarsal heads come closer together \u2192 the transverse intermetatarsal ligament compresses the digital nerve between the metatarsal heads and the sole of the foot + repeated compression during weight-bearing \u2192 repeated microtrauma to the nerve<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Preference for the 3rd interdigital space<\/strong> in the 3rd space, the common digital nerve results from the anastomosis of the lateral branch of the medial plantar nerve and the medial branch of the lateral plantar nerve \u2192 nerve more voluminous than elsewhere \u2192 more sensitive to compression in an anatomically narrower space + the 2nd space is the second most frequently affected by the same mechanism<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Histological lesions:<\/strong> progressive epineural and perineural fibrosis \u2192 thickening of the nerve sheath \u2192 axonal degeneration \u2192 hyaline deposits around the perineural vessels \u2192 endoneural edema \u2192 macroscopic appearance of a firm, whitish 5-10 mm fusiform mass surrounding the digital nerve + this is not tumor cell proliferation but reactional fibrosis<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Aggravating factors :<\/strong> narrow-toe shoes compress the forefoot transversely + high heels increase the load on the anterior metatarsals (the metatarsal heads support up to 75 % of body weight with a 5 cm heel) + repeated-impact sports activities (running + tennis + dance) + flat or hollow foot with unbalanced metatarsal pressure distribution + associated intermetatarsal bursitis (often concomitant with neuroma)<\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n\n  <h2>Clinical presentation<\/h2>\n\n  <table class=\"co-table\">\n    <thead>\n      <tr>\n        <th>Sign or symptom<\/th>\n        <th>Detailed clinical description<\/th>\n        <th>Diagnostic value<\/th>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr>\n        <td>Burning or electric metatarsalgia<\/td>\n        <td>Burning, throbbing, and electric shock-like pain in the forefoot, radiating to the two toes adjacent to the affected area (e.g., 3rd and 4th toes for the 3rd interspace), or toward the sole of the foot.
