description Additional cuneiform bones of the foot have been described in reference to the medial bipartite cuneiform or as small accessory ossicles.

Recognizing such an anatomical anomaly is essential for ruling out second metatarsal base or middle cuneiform fractures and for the preoperative planning of arthrodesis or open reduction and internal fixation procedures in this anatomical location.
