A cuboid fracture is a fracture of the cuboid bone of the foot. Diagnosis is by X-ray imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, or bone scan. [1] Treatment may be conservative or involve surgery, depending on the type of fracture. [1] They are rare. [1]
The calcaneocuboid ligament (ligamentum calcaneocuboideum) is fixed to the medial side of the cuboid and forms one of the principal bonds between the first and second rows of the tarsal bones. The calcaneonavicular ligament (ligamentum calcaneonaviculare) is attached to the lateral side of the navicular. (Note this is NOT the spring ligament ...
Chopart's fracture–dislocation is a dislocation of the mid-tarsal (talonavicular and calcaneocuboid) joints of the foot, often with associated fractures of the calcaneus, cuboid and navicular. [ 1 ]
Cuboid syndrome or cuboid subluxation describes a condition that results from subtle injury to the calcaneocuboid joint, [1] and ligaments in the vicinity of the cuboid bone, one of seven tarsal bones of the human foot. This condition often manifests in the form of lateral (little toe side) foot pain and sometimes general foot weakness.
Nutcracker fracture refers to the comminuted fracture of the cuboid bone of the foot. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] If treated improperly, it can lead to lateral column shortening and significant pain. [ 4 ] Nutcracker fracture is rare because of the relatively protected position of cuboid in the midfoot.
A calcaneal fracture is a break of the calcaneus (heel bone). [1] ... is the largest of the tarsal bones and articulates with the cuboid bone anteriorly and the talus ...
A Lisfranc injury, also known as Lisfranc fracture, is an injury of the foot in which one or more of the metatarsal bones are displaced from the tarsus. [1] [2]The injury is named after Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin, a French surgeon and gynecologist who noticed this fracture pattern amongst cavalrymen in 1815, after the War of the Sixth Coalition.
The dorsal ligaments are strong, flat bands.. The first metatarsal is joined to the first cuneiform by a broad, thin band; the second has three, one from each cuneiform bone; the third has one from the third cuneiform; the fourth has one from the third cuneiform and one from the cuboid; and the fifth, one from the cuboid.
