The ostrigonum is a small bone present on the posterolateral aspect of the talus. It is formed from a separate ossification center which fails to unite with the talus itself. Incidence is about 3-15% .The diagnosis can be difficult to make as symptoms and physical exam findings mimic those that occur withproblems related to an accessory soleus muscle, flexor hallucislongus, posteriortibialis, or peroneal tendons, arthritis involving the posterior tibiotalar or subtalar joints, or ostrigonum syndrome. Misdiagnosis of such injuries may result in inadequate management including immediate weight bearing and prolonged symptoms.Downloads
