- type 1 accessory navicular bone

Case Discussion
Tibiotalar spurs are bony proliferation of the anterior tibial plafond and the anterior talus. They can be found in asymptomatic individuals or in patients who present with anterior ankle pain. They are considered to have an important role in the development of anterior or anteromedial ankle impingement
