Abstract

AbstractThe results of 17 patients who had been treated by simple excision, for symptomatic accessory navicular were reviewed 2 to 5 years postoperatively. Although all patients had good or excellent results by subjective criteria, careful examination revealed difficulty in performing the “single-heel rise test” in 8 patients who also had preexisting flat feet. These results suggest the necessity for an objective evaluation system, as well as a different treatment approach, for the association of accessory navicular and flat foot.
