Sesamoid Bone Blocking Fracture Reduction in Traumatic Injury of First Metatarsal

We describe a patient who sustained an extra-articular, oblique and angulated first metatarsal fracture. The medial hallucal sesamoid bone was subsequently found to have entered the fracture gap preventing reduction. We describe treatment of this rare injury with a successful outcome.
