Abstract

The navicular stress fracture presents clinically as deep located pain, insidious on onset, occurring after physical activity. Diagnosis would be assisted by bone scan and CT, which would usually show a fracture in the sagittal plane involving the dorsal part of the bone. Differential diagnosis may include a bipartite navicular, an accessory navicular, osteochondritis dissecans, avascular necrosis, or Kienboeck’s disease. Treatment could be conservative using a weight bearing or preferably a non-weight bearing cast for 6 weeks, and occasionally surgical intervention. In either treatment, protocol results are often unsatisfactory and the athlete should be advised of this prior to initiating treatment.
