Congenital absence of the lateral sesamoid is an extremely rare condition. We present a case of congenital absence of the lateral sesamoid in which magnetic resonance imaging was performed. The literature is reviewed regarding the clinical significance of this anomaly. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 96(1): 78–81, 2006)
A 19-year-old woman presented with pain at the lateral side of the fifth toe of her left foot, which was separated from the adjacent toe. Initial examination suggested dislocation of the fifth metatarsophalangeal joint due to a past fracture. Radiographs showed a mass arising from the proximal phalanx of the little toe, with no medullary and cortical continuity. Excisional biopsy of the mass was performed, and a histologic diagnosis of bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation of bone (Nora’s lesion) was made.
