Abstract
Tarsal coalition occurs in 1% of the population and represents a congenital failure
of segmentation in two or more tarsal bones. It most commonly occurs at the talocalcaneal
and calcaneonavicular joint. Although commonly asymptomatic, it may present with pain,
rigidity, and pes planus. Cubonavicular, multiple synchronous, and bilateral coalitions
are rare but an awareness is required to ensure accurate diagnosis and management.
In this article, we presented the first reported case (to the best of our knowledge)
of bilateral cubonavicular coalition with synchronous talocalcaneal coalition and
stress response within the intermediate cuneiform.
