Abstract

Accessory bones of the foot are common, but the presence of accessory bones located at the plantar aspect of the calcaneus is rare. We present the case of a 72-year-old female that suffered with a volume expanding os subcalcis. Due to marked disability, the large os subcalcis was excised with a favorable outcome.
