Endoscopic decompression for intermetatarsal nerve entrapment--the EDIN technique: preliminary study with cadaveric specimens; early clinical results.

The authors have developed an endoscopic approach to the surgical treatment of Morton's neuroma. This technique is based on the premise that the condition is primarily a nerve entrapment disease. As with other endoscopically assisted procedures, the authors believe that this technique will be less traumatic, allowing an earlier return to normal activity, with less patient discomfort than with traditional surgical techniques.
