Cuboid-navicular Tarsal Coalition
نویسندگان
چکیده
The authors present the case of a nine-year-old female patient who presented with pain in her right foot associated with physical activities. After this case was diagnosed as cuboid-navicular tarsal coalition, the patient was treated surgically with resection of the coalition, thereby resolving the symptoms. The literature was reviewed and the importance of adequate physical examination and imaging assessment for investigating foot pain in children and adolescents was discussed.

The Rare Cuboid-Navicular Coalition Presenting as Chronic Foot Pain
Tarsal coalitions are relatively rare diagnoses affecting adolescent patients that typically present with progressive foot pain. Cuboid-navicular coalition, a type of tarsal coalition, is extremely rare with less than 10 reported cases to date. Most prevailing theories reported have described this specific type of coalition as asymptomatic except at specific moments of stress and exercise. The ...

Tarsal coalitions appear in 2% of the population, although for some the incidence of tarsal coalitions ranges from 0.03% to 0.38%1. Talonavicular and talocalcaneal coalitions are the most common symptomatic coalitions. Their presence in other tarsal joints such as talonavicular, calcaneus cuboid and naviculocuneiform joints is very rare. Leonard2, in a long series of tarsal coalitions, found th...
متن کاملA MR imaging procedure to investigate tarsal bone mechanics
In the current work, a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging procedure to evaluate quasi-static motion of the calcaneus, cuboid, navicular, and talus is presented. It is focused on the applicability of a newly developed foot loading and positioning device. For that purpose, tarsal bone positions of three healthy subjects in a pronated and a supinated foot excursion under bodyweight were repeatedly me...
متن کاملA three-dimensional study of calcaneonavicular tarsal coalitions.
The authors studied 37 presumed calcaneonavicular tarsal coalitions from the Hamann-Todd Osteological Collection at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. The anatomy of the coalitions and the associated subtalar and transverse tarsal joints was quite variable. The coalitions in 8 specimens completely spared the anterior facet of the calcaneus and in 7 specimens it was partially replaced by t...
متن کاملStatistical shape models of cuboid, navicular and talus bones
BACKGROUND The aim was to develop statistical shape models of the main human tarsal bones that would result in novel representations of cuboid, navicular and talus. METHODS Fifteen right and 15 left retrospectively collected computed tomography data sets from male individuals, aged from 17 to 63 years, with no known foot pathology were collected. Data were gathered from 30 different subjects....
