Forefoot nonunions present significant challenges in clinical practice due to their complex etiology and the essential role of the forefoot in weight-bearing and ambulation. Risk factors such as poor vascular supply, diabetes, smoking, poor nutritional status, non-compliance, and infection exacerbate the condition. Diagnosis primarily relies on clinical evaluation and imaging modalities. The effective management of forefoot nonunions requires a multifaceted approach that integrates accurate diagnosis, appropriate conservative or surgical treatment, and thorough postoperative care and long-term follow- up. Understanding the underlying causes and appropriately managing patient comorbidities can significantly enhance treatment outcomes and patients' quality of life.
