title: Unusual foot pathologies mimicking common sports injuries.
abstract: The author presents several relatively uncommon foot pathologies appearing in athletes. Unusual exostoses, rare accessory ossicles, along with soft tissue and bone tumors may need to be included in the differential diagnosis. These should be considered if an athlete has a recalcitrant injury not corresponding to usual therapies.
