This article, titled "Accessory Ossicles of the Foot and Their Clinical Significance," discusses the various accessory ossicles found in the foot and ankle and their importance in clinical practice. These ossicles, which are anatomical variations, can be asymptomatic or cause painful syndromes and fractures. The article emphasizes the use of radiography as the gold standard for evaluating these variations, but advanced imaging techniques like computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging may be necessary to diagnose complications. The article provides information on the prevalence, location, classification, clinical significance, pathologic mechanism, and imaging characteristics of these ossicles, along with examples and images from the authors' database and the literature. The authors highlight the importance of radiologists having knowledge of these ossicles and their manifestations on advanced imaging. [Extracted from the article] |
