Abstract

The case reports of five patients with signs and symptoms of a fracture of the tarsal navicular body are presented. Each patient underwent a computerized tomography examination to determine the extent of this fracture. Based on the computerized tomography findings, surgical or conservative management was carried out. The computerized tomography examination, combined with the patient's history, has shed new light on a previously undescribed mechanism of injury for this fracture.
