In foot surgery, postoperative edema is a complication making the postoperative outcome quite uncertain as to the rehabilitation of the patient. The evolution of this edema is unknown ... The means of "mastering" this edema are empirical, with little study other than cryotherapy and restraint. This study aims to study postoperative edema in a cohort of patients undergoing forefoot surgery. The follow-up will be prospective with measurement of the volume of the foot using an optical technique, during the various follow-up consultations between Day 8 and Month 6 postoperative.

During the visits (Day 0 before surgery, Day 8, Day 21, Day 45, Month 3 and Month 6 after surgery), a measurement of the volume and the perimeter of the patient's two feet is carried out (operated foot and control foot). The edema is measured by a non-invasive method using an optical scanner (camera + laser scanning). The image processing software accompanying this tool has an automatic calculation of the volumes and the different perimeters of the foot. The measurement time by the scanner is less than 4 seconds.
