Cubonavicular coalition: a case report and literature review.
Tarsal coalitions are uncommon entities. Talocalcaneal and calcaneonavicular synostosis are present in most of the reported cases. Cubonavicular coalition represents only 1% of all the cases in the literature reviewed. The current authors report on a new case of bilateral cubonavicular coalition and present a literature review. The authors also report on the etiology, clinical and radiologic findings, and the treatment to be used. Tarsal coalitions are uncommon entities that must be suspected in an adolescent with painful feet who also has decreased mobility and deformity of the feet.
