Although infrequent, a fracture of the cuboid can lead to significant
disruption of the integrity of the midfoot and its function. The
purpose of this study was to classify the pattern of fractures of
the cuboid, relate them to the mechanism of injury and suggest methods
of managing them. We performed a retrospective review of patients with radiologically
reported cuboid fractures. Fractures were grouped according to commonly
occurring patterns of injury. A total of 192 fractures in 188 patients
were included. They were classified into five patterns of injury.Aims
