The apophysis of the proximal 5th metatarsal (plural apophyses) lies laterally and is oriented longitudinally parallel to the shaft. Apophysis of the fifth metatarsal base appears on plain radiographs at age 12 years for boys and 10 years for girls.

Iselin disease is a benign and self-limiting condition, defined as apophysitis of the base of the 5 th metatarsal.
Other locations include the tibial tuberosity, inferior patellar pole, calcaneal tuberosity, 5 th metatarsal base, acromion, proximal humerus, radial medial epicondyle, and distal radius. Pathology. Chronic traction microinjuries to the apophysis, especially in sports that require rapid muscle contractions and in gymnastics.
Avulsion fractures of the tuberosity of the 5 th metatarsal are typically oriented transversely in contrast to the unfused apophysis in children which parallels the shaft. The fracture may reach the cuboid-metatarsal joint.
The apophysis is a site of tendon or ligament attachment, as compared to the epiphysis which contributes to a joint, and for that reason, it is also called 'traction epiphysis'. When unfused, apophyses can easily be mistaken for fractures.
Citation, DOI, disclosures and case data. The findings are compatible with normal apophysis of the proximal 5th metatarsal.
Accessory ossicles of the feet are common developmental variants with almost 40 having been described. Some of the more common include 1-4: os peroneum. os subfibulare. os subtibiale. os tibiale externum (accessory navicular) os trigonum. os calcaneus secundaris. os calcanei accessorium 6.
The proximal 5 th metatarsal is the site of a number of fractures. These include: Jones fracture. avulsion fracture of the proximal 5 th metatarsal. stress fracture of the 5 th metatarsal. The biomechanics of the fractures differ as do their natural history and treatment, therefore an understanding of these entities is important.
