Abstract
Skeletal variations of the foot include bipartitions. Bipartition of the talus, navicular, medial cuneiform, hallucal sesamoids, and accessory bones have been reported. Apart from the hallucal sesamoids, bipartite bones of the foot are rarely found. When identified, they can range from asymptomatic incidental findings to significant sources of pain. Relatively sparse information is available about most of these entities; limited to case series and case reports. The goals of this review are to discuss clinical and radiographic presentation, review the existing literature about these entities, focusing on treatments and their outcomes.
