The therapeutic algorithm for symptomatic Morton's syndrome is not standardized as several managements have been proposed. Ultrasound-guided alcohol injection (USGAI) is one of the non-operative procedures described. This report presents the case of digital ischemia that occurred after alcoholization for the treatment of Morton's syndrome. This complication is described for the first time in the scientific literature, and it should not only be added to the list of sequalae of USGAI, but more importantly, it should also be explained to the patient when this alternative treatment to traditional surgery is proposed.
