Overview There are three different types of accessory navicular. This extra cartilage, which is turned into bone, is found attached to the posterior tibial tendon, just medial (inside) the navicular bone. The accessory navicular can affect the insertion of the posterior tibial tendon. This tendon has a job of keeping your foot aligned and helping to maintain an arch. The accessory navicular can be associated with a normal foot posture and alignment, or sometime with a flat (pes planus) foot. Causes Accessory navicular syndrome as it is called can result from a number of causes, excess or overuse syndrome as seen in an athlete. Trauma to the foot as in an ankle sprain or direct trauma to the navicular bone. chronic irritation from shoes rubbing against the extra bone, over time, may cause pain. Excessive pronation which strains the attachment of tibialis posterior muscles into the navicular bone. Keep in mind, the larger the actual accessory bone, the greater the chance of it becoming an issue. Symptoms Symptoms of this syndrome would include redness, swelling and tenderness over the navicular bone. The navicular bone is located on the inside of the foot approximately midway between the ankle bone and big toe joint. It will tend to be worse after activity and can be aggravated by those that wear very dressy shoes as opposed to casual shoes like sneakers. In other words, the flatter or less supportive the shoe, the greater the chance for pain. Diagnosis To diagnose accessory navicular syndrome, medical staff ask about the patient?s activities and symptoms. They will examine the foot for irritation or swelling. Medical staff evaluate the bone structure, muscle, joint motion, and the patient?s gait. X-rays can usually confirm the diagnosis. MRI or other imaging tests may be used to determine any irritation or damage to soft-tissue structures such as tendons or ligaments. Because navicular accessory bone irritation can lead to bunions, [http://Kindrabieberle.jimdo.com/2015/03/28/all-the-things-you-ought-to-understand-about-heel-pain heel spurs] and plantar fasciitis, it?s important to seek treatment. Non Surgical Treatment A combination of the following non-surgical treatments may be used to relieve the symptoms of accessory navicular syndrome. Immobilizing the foot with a cast or a removable walking boot allows the foot to rest and reduces inflammation. Applying ice to the affected area is an effective way to reduce swelling and inflammation. Wrap a bag of ice with a thin towel and apply for intervals of 15 to 20 minutes. Never put ice directly on the skin. Oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including aspirin or ibuprofen might be prescribed. Sometimes, a combination of immobilization and oral or injected corticosteroid medications may reduce pain and inflammation. Physical therapy may be prescribed to include exercises and treatments that increase muscle strength, decrease inflammation and help prevent the recurrence of symptoms. Custom orthotic devices worn in the shoe provide arch support and may prevent future symptoms from developing. The symptoms of this syndrome may reappear even after successful treatment. If so, non-surgical treatments are often repeated. Surgical Treatment The original procedure advocated by Kidner involved shelling out of the accessory navicular bone from within the insertional area of the posterior tibial tendon and rerouting this tendon under the navicular bone in hopes of restoring a normal pull of this tendon. When treating younger children, history has shown us that simply shelling out of the accessory navicular bone from within the tendon and remodeling the tuberosity of the navicular bone can give you satisfactory results. In general, you want to reserve advancement of the posterior tibial tendon for adults or those who have a more significant flatfoot deformity. You may also use this approach after determining that quality custom orthotics are only resulting in a slight decrease of symptoms.

Surgeons will place a tourniquet around your thigh and an incision will be made on the inside of the foot. The posterior tibial tendon will be moved as necessary and the accessory navicular will be removed. Surgeons will repair the posterior tibial tendon with sutures or suture anchors, and the wound will be closed. A splint will be placed on the foot for stabilization and immobilization. You will be permitted to leave the surgical center once you have been cleared by the anesthesiologist. Plan ahead to have a friend or family member take your prescription to a pharmacy to pick up your post-op medication. Use narcotic pain medications before bed or if numbness in your foot begins to dull. Schedule a post-op visit for 4 weeks after the procedure.

−	Overview<br>~~There are three different types~~ of ~~accessory navicular~~. This ~~extra cartilage~~, ~~which is turned into bone, is found attached~~ to the ~~posterior tibial tendon~~, ~~just medial (inside)~~ the ~~navicular bone~~. ~~The accessory navicular can affect~~ the ~~insertion~~ of the ~~posterior tibial tendon. This tendon has a job of keeping your~~ foot ~~aligned and helping to maintain an arch. The accessory navicular can~~ be ~~associated with a normal foot posture~~ and ~~alignment, or sometime with~~ a flat ~~(pes planus) foot~~.<br><br><br><br>Causes<br>Accessory navicular syndrome as it is called can result from a number of causes, excess or overuse syndrome as seen in an athlete. Trauma to the foot as in an ankle sprain or direct trauma to the navicular bone. chronic irritation from shoes rubbing against the extra bone, over time, may cause pain. Excessive pronation which strains the attachment of tibialis posterior muscles into the navicular bone. Keep in mind, the larger the actual accessory bone, the greater the chance of it becoming an issue.<br><br>Symptoms<br>~~Symptoms of this syndrome would include redness, swelling and tenderness over the~~ navicular ~~bone~~. The ~~navicular bone~~ is ~~located~~ on the inside of the foot ~~approximately midway between the ankle bone and big toe joint. It will tend~~ to be worse ~~after activity~~ and ~~can be~~ aggravated by ~~those that wear very dressy shoes as opposed to casual shoes like sneakers~~. ~~In other words~~, the ~~flatter or less supportive~~ the ~~shoe~~, the greater the ~~chance~~ for ~~pain~~.<br><br>Diagnosis<br>To diagnose accessory navicular syndrome, medical staff ask about the patient?s activities and symptoms. They will examine the foot for irritation or swelling. Medical staff evaluate the bone structure, muscle, joint motion, and the patient?s gait. X-rays can usually confirm the diagnosis. MRI or other imaging tests may be used to determine any irritation or damage to soft-tissue structures such as tendons or ligaments. Because navicular accessory bone irritation can lead to bunions, [http://~~Kindrabieberle~~.~~jimdo~~.~~com~~/~~2015/03/28/all~~-~~the~~-~~things~~-~~you-ought-to-understand-about-heel-pain~~ heel spurs] and plantar fasciitis, it?s important to seek treatment.<br><br>Non Surgical Treatment<br>~~A combination~~ of ~~the following non-surgical treatments~~ may be ~~used to relieve the symptoms~~ of ~~accessory navicular syndrome~~. ~~Immobilizing~~ the ~~foot with~~ a ~~cast or~~ a ~~removable walking~~ boot ~~allows~~ the foot ~~to rest~~ and ~~reduces inflammation. Applying ice to~~ the ~~affected area is an effective way to reduce swelling and inflammation~~. ~~Wrap a bag of ice~~ with ~~a thin towel and apply for intervals of 15 to 20 minutes. Never put~~ ice ~~directly on the skin. Oral nonsteroidal~~ anti-inflammatory ~~drugs (NSAIDs) including aspirin or ibuprofen might be prescribed~~. ~~Sometimes~~, a ~~combination~~ of ~~immobilization and oral or injected corticosteroid medications may reduce pain and inflammation. Physical therapy may be prescribed~~ to ~~include exercises and treatments that increase muscle strength, decrease inflammation and help prevent~~ the recurrence of symptoms. Custom orthotic devices worn in the shoe provide arch support and may prevent future symptoms from developing. The symptoms of this syndrome may reappear even after successful treatment. If so, non-surgical treatments are often repeated.<br><br><br><br>Surgical Treatment<br>~~The original procedure advocated by Kidner involved shelling out of~~ the accessory navicular ~~bone from within the insertional area of the posterior tibial tendon and rerouting this tendon under the navicular bone in hopes of restoring a normal pull of this tendon~~. ~~When treating younger children, history has shown us that simply shelling out of~~ the accessory ~~navicular~~ bone ~~from within~~ the ~~tendon~~ and ~~remodeling the tuberosity of the navicular bone can give you satisfactory results.<br>In general, you want to reserve advancement of~~ the posterior tibial tendon for ~~adults or those who have a more significant flatfoot deformity. You may also use this approach after determining that quality custom orthotics are only resulting in a slight decrease of symptoms~~.	+	Overview<br>Some people, possibly beginning in early adolescents, but perhaps later, can develop a painful bump on the side of their foot. The pain may be worse after athletic activity or just normal walking, and walking itself may become painful. This pain may become constant, but it will tend to improve with continued rest. Depending on the size of the bump, it may rub against shoes, or cause pain if the bump is hit by something. Over time, the arch of the foot may be lost and a flat food will develop.<br><br><br><br>Causes<br>Accessory navicular syndrome as it is called can result from a number of causes, excess or overuse syndrome as seen in an athlete.

When problems do occur, they may begin in early adolescence. The obvious indication is a painful bump on the inside of the foot, which hurts to touch, and causes problems that gradually become worse, and which are aggravated by activity, walking, etc., leading to all the problems discussed here. Pain may be worse towards the end of the day, and continue into the night. Among adults, symptomatic accessory navicular is more common in women than in men, with onset typical at 40 years of age or greater. Among symptomatic children, the mean age of onset for maels is 6 years, and for females, 4.5 years. In general, symptoms may occur between 2 and 9 years of age.<br><br>Diagnosis<br>To diagnose accessory navicular syndrome, medical staff ask about the patient?s activities and symptoms.

This should allow the fibrous tissue between the two bones to heal. If a patient is extremely flat footed (pronated) then I lean more towards an orthotic than a boot as my main goal is to keep the patient's foot from flattening out too much and thus reduce the strain on the two bones. Supplementation with ice, oral anti-inflammatory medication. If the patient is athletic sometimes we can keep them active with an orthotic, but other times they have to give up their sport for a period of time to allow the condition to heal.<br><br><br><br>Surgical Treatment<br>If non-surgical treatment fails to relieve the symptoms of accessory navicular syndrome, surgery may be appropriate.
