Common exostectomies of the rearfoot

T A Le et al. Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 1991 Jul.

Abstract

A review of literature for first metatarsocuneiform joint exostosis, accessory navicular bone, Haglund's syndrome, and os trigonum syndrome does not reveal any significant changes in the process of diagnosis and treatment. The surgical procedures are simple to perform but complications do occur that necessitate the understanding of the pathology and anatomy for each condition.
