• Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injections in Morton neuroma provide long-term pain relief in more than 75% of patients. • Ultrasound-guided injections in Morton neuroma led to greater long-term pain relief and less disability than blind injections up to 3 years of follow-up. • The presence of an ipsilateral neuroma is associated with worse long-term disability score.
