Abstract

We have observed that "spool-shaped" proximal pedal phalanges sometimes are found in single or multiple toes, often affecting both feet. These changes may be present in normal as well as abnormal feet. The etiology is unknown. Such changes do not occur in the hands.

[Rear and fore-foot pathologies].

A good knowledge of the anatomy of the foot is indispensable in order to orient the diagnosis. The clinical examination of the foot need to be done in a static (sitting and lying) as well as in a dynamic (walking and running). The foot is divided in three regions : rear-foot, mid-foot and fore-foot. The pathologies that are developed (rear-foot and fore-foot) are the ones that are most frequently seen during the consultation. They are described taking into account their aetiology, the clinical aspects, the imaging and the treatment.
