    AbstractMorton neuroma is a non neoplastic lesion corresponding to perineural fibrosis encircling the common interdigital plantar nerve. Several therapeutic approaches are possible: conservative treatment or surgery. We report a case treated by local steroid injection where follow-up MR showed near complete regression of the lesion. Although local injection of steroid is a classical treatment, it is the first time to our knowledge that resolution or such a striking diminution of size is reported after infiltration.
