Additional cuneiform bones of the foot have been described in reference to the medial bipartite cuneiform or as small accessory ossicles. An additional middle cuneiform has not been previously documented. We present the case of a patient with an additional ossicle that has the appearance and location of an additional middle cuneiform. Recognizing such an anatomical anomaly is essential for ruling out second metatarsal base or middle cuneiform fractures and for the preoperative planning of arthrodesis or open reduction and internal fixation procedures in this anatomical location.
足部额外的楔骨已被描述为与内侧二分楔骨相关或作为小的副骨。此前尚未有额外中间楔骨的记录。我们报告一例患者,其有一个外观和位置类似额外中间楔骨的额外小骨。识别这种解剖学异常对于排除第二跖骨基底或中间楔骨骨折以及该解剖部位关节融合术或切开复位内固定手术的术前规划至关重要。
