Gangrene is often treated by an operation to remove the dead tissue. 1  If it's an area of tissue that can be removed, the operation is called debridement - the surgical removal of lacerated, devitalized, or contaminated tissue. If it's a leg, foot, finger, or toe that have to be removed, the operation is called an amputation - the surgical removal of an affected part of the body.
This procedure is called a cheilectomy. Removing the bone spur allows more room for the toe to bend up and alleviates pain caused when pushing off the toe. This procedure also can be combined with other bone cuts that change the position of the big toe and further relieve pressure at the top of the joint.
