Background: The aim of this study was to compare operative outcomes after lesser toe deformity correction with either proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint arthrodesis or PIP joint resection arthroplasty.

The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, osseous consolidation, and clinical outcome were evaluated preoperatively and at 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively.
