Abstract

This study was performed on 38 Pairs of cadaveric human 1st metatarsal bones in an attempt to establish the pattern of bone mineral density and to correlate it with the biomechanical function of the bone. The results show that the head is denser than the base, the dorsal portion of the whole metatarsal is denser than the planter portion and the lateral portion of the whole metatarsal is denser than the planter portion and the lateral portion of the whole metatarsal is denser than the medial aspect. The same pattern of bone density with respect to dorsal vs planter and Lateral vs medial was also seen in the head and compared with same portions of the metatarsal as a whole. The relation-ship between the bone density distribution of the 1st metatarsal bone and their biomechanical function in the gait cycle was discussed.
