Abstract
A 17-year-old male basketball player sustained a left foot injury during sudden change of direction and backing on the lateral foot margin, but with no mechanism of distortion, was referred for MRI of the foot (Figure 1). He ceased all the training activities due to severe pain and feel of instability in the region of the lateral foot aspect. A month before the injury, he had had intense trainings two times a day with no complaints. On admission, four weeks after the injury, moderately antalgic gait with sparring of the left foot was seen. Mild swelling of the left foot in projection of the calcaneo-cuboid joint with significant palpable tenderness of the plantar projection of the cuboid was demonstrated. Painful and limited inversion and adduction of the left foot was shown. No neurological or vascular abnormalities of the left foot were noted.
