[Foot involvement in Paget's disease of bone].
Paget's disease of the bones of the feet is not unusual. Twenty patients out of every hundred present the signs of Paget's disease in the foot bones. The calcaneus is the bone most often affected (18 cases) but the cuboid, the metatarsals, and the astragalus (often as well as the calcaneus) may also be affected. Paget's disease of the foot remains latent clinically: 2 patients complained of talalgia; a third had a deformation of the rear part of the foot which made it difficult to wear a shoe. Pagetic deformations of the lower limb affect the foot but without pain. They are often compensated for by putting more weight on the fore-foot in cases of shortening of the lower limb or on the external arch in cases of bowed deformation of the lower limb.
