Treatment may be conservative or involve surgery, depending on the type of fracture. [1] They are rare. [1] If the cuboid bone is broken, then it is common for other bones in the foot to be broken or dislocated as well. [2] Cuboid fractures are associated with Lisfranc injuries.

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.
While cuneiform fractures are fairly rare, the most commonly fractured cuneiform bone is the Medial cuneiform, typically the cause of a cuneiform fracture is by physical trauma (direct blow) to the cuneiform, as well as the result of an avulsion fracture and a result of axial load, [5] but can also be the result of a stress reaction that progressed with continued weight-bearing and physical ...
The first mechanism is a stress fracture which happens commonly in athletes, [7] and the other mechanism is a high energy trauma. The navicular bone is a keystone of the foot: it is part of the coxa pedis and articulates with the talus, first, second and third cuneiform, cuboid and calcaneus.

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 ]
Only one muscle is attached to the cuboid bone; the tibialis posterior.The tibialis posterior inserts to the under surface of the cuboid bone. [2] While the flexor hallucis brevis arises, by a pointed tendinous process, from the medial part of the under surface of the cuboid bone, from the contiguous portion of the lateral cuneiform bone, and from the prolongation of the tendon of the tibialis ...
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.
