Quiescent and painful accessory navicular bones in the same patient

초록

A 35-year-old woman underwent bone imaging to evaluate progressive pain over the medial aspect of her right foot. She was a homemaker and had not sustained any recent trauma to the region. The images showed a focus of increased uptake in the right medial midfoot. Simultaneously obtained radiographs showed the accessory ossicles adjacent to the navicular bones bilaterally. This indicated that she had right inflammatory and left quiescent accessory navicular ossicles at the same time. Bone imaging functioned well as a diagnostic method in differentiating them.
