Abstract
Bipartition of the medial cuneiform is uncommon and often not recognized on plain radiographs. It is usually asymptomatic and rarely, if ever, requires surgery. Injury to the synchondrosis of a bipartite medial cuneiform is rare and has, to our knowledge, been reported only once. We describe such a case with chronic disabling midfoot pain after remote trauma.
