Navicular osteonecrosis
Updates to Case Attributes
This is a classic case of osteonecrosis of the tarsal navicular bone also know as Mueller Weiss syndrome. This is typical of adult onset-onset with radiographic features of patchy sclerosis and thin dorsal protrusion.
Mueller Weiss syndrome can be progressive at times, and it is sometimes associated with severe pain and disability.
The paediatric version is known as Köhler disease.

Updates to Study Attributes
No recent or healing bony injury is identified.
There is evidence of changes of Mueller Weiss syndrome.Mueller Weiss syndrome refers to spontaneous multifactorial adult onset osteonecrosis of - the tarsal navicular bone.The navicular demonstrates patchy sclerosis (similar to avascular necrosis elsewhere).Plain radiographic features of Mueller Weiss syndrome include medial/dorsal protrusion of a portion of or the entire navicular bone.
