Popis: Two cases of bilateral coalition between the navicular and the cuneiform bones are reported. One patient had coalition between the navicular and the first and third cuneiform with degenerative changes in the tarsus. The other patient had coalition between the navicular and the first cuneiform, but no radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis. The possible pathogenesis of the changes in the feet is discussed, and Kohler's disease of the navicular is suggested as the primary cause.
