Sever disease is a type of the non-articular osteochondrosis of the calcaneal apophysis.
Foot radiograph findings in severSever disease have low sensitivity and specificity because those with severSever disease may not have it, thus radiological identification of calcaneal apophysitis without the absence of clinical information is not reliable. The main differential is normal fragmentation of the calcaneal apophysis.
