Abstract
A previously undescribed anomaly of the calcaneus occurred in an otherwise healthy 2-month-old girl. There was marked bilateral hypoplasia of the calcanei, involving approximately the posterior half of each. The child stood at 15 months and walked at 22 months. At age 5 years, the child had a slight in-toed gait that corrected with dorsiflexion. Her only problem has been some difficulty with shoeware. The etiology of this anomaly remains conjectural.
