Tarsometatarsal coalitions have rarely been reported in published literature. The few reported cases presented with varying degrees of pain. Here, we describe the case of a 16-year-old female with multiple tarsometatarsal coalitions, the first of its kind in the reported literature. Descriptions in anthropology literature suggest that these lesions might be more common than previously thought and, in some circumstances, can become symptomatic enough to warrant intervention.
跗跖关节联合在已发表的文献中鲜有报道。少数已报道的病例表现出不同程度的疼痛。在此，我们描述了一名患有多处跗跖关节联合的16岁女性病例，这是文献报道中的首例。人类学文献中的描述表明，这些病变可能比之前认为的更为常见，在某些情况下，其症状可能严重到需要进行干预。
