Introduction[edit | edit source]

Cuboid syndrome is a minor disruption or subluxation of the structural congruity of the calcaneocuboid portion of the midtarsal joint, which in turn irritates the joint capsule, ligaments, and fibularis (peroneus) longus tendon[1].Cuboid syndrome has been documented in the podiatric, orthopaedic, osteopathic, and physical therapy literature under various terms, including subluxed cuboid, locked cuboid, Dropped cuboid, cuboid fault syndrome, and lateral plantar neuritis, Cuboid syndrome represents approximately 4% of all foot injuries[2],cuboid syndrome is present approximately 7% following plantar-flexion and inversion ankle sprains. It appears that the occurrence of cuboid syndrome in professional ballet dancers may be higher, accounting for up to 17% of reported foot and ankle injuries in this population[3] .
