Abstract

Isolated plantar dislocation of the cuneiform was reported in only two cases in the literature. We report a 57-year-old man with plantar dislocation of the cuneiform when the foot was struck by a large concrete block during construction of a building. Tarsometatarsal injuries are frequently overlooked. Therefore, plain computed tomography (CT) and three-dimensional CT are useful for adequate evaluation.
