  • Title: Osteochondrosis of the tarsal cuneiforms.
    Author: Leeson MC, Weiner DS.
    Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1985 Jun; (196):260-4. PubMed ID: 3995827.
    Abstract:
    The osteochondroses are a conglomerate of bony lesions that share similar clinical, radiographic, and pathologic features. While almost any bone may demonstrate the features of this disease process, involvement of the tarsal bone is very rare. Some type of disorder of enchondral ossification is thought to be the common etiologic link in the development and manifestation of tarsal cuneiform osteochondrosis. The course of the disease process is benign and self-limited. The treatment is symptomatic.
