Accessory navicular bone

    • What are the different types of accessory navicular bones?

      There are three main types of accessory navicular bones: a small bone embedded within the nearby posterior tibial tendon; a triangular shaped bone connected to the navicular by thick cartilage; and a large prominent navicular tuberosity thought to represent an accessory navicular that has fused to the navicular.


    • What is an accessory bone?

      An accessory bone is an additional bone/bony segment which is not usually seen as part of the normal structure of the foot. Accessory bones may arise in several areas of the foot. This leaflet concentrates on the accessory navicular bone which is found on the instep of the foot often within the tibialis posterior tendon.


    • How is a navicular tendon treated?

      Surgical treatment may include: The Kidner procedure involves resecting the prominent accessory navicular and ensuring that the posterior tibial tendon is still attached to the bone. Often the prominent bone can simply be shelled out from its position relative to the posterior tibial tendon, which leaves the tendon intact.

There are few studies address-
