The relationship between the distal metatarsal articular angle and intersesamoidal crista: An osteological study

There is no significant relationship between the DMAA and crista erosion. Severe cartilaginous erosion is present before osteological changes occur, and the unexpected result may be reflected in skeletal specimens in which no cartilaginous changes can be observed. A novel, experimental method of assessing HV in modern human skeletal material is proposed.
