UnlabelledMidfoot bones fractures are usually unisolated and associated with a high-energy trauma. Unfortunately a such fracture it is often missed or delayed in primary diagnosis. Isolated medial cuneiform fracture is a very rare injury. A review of the literature reveals only few cases and none of bilateral.Case ReportWe report of undisplaced isolated bilateral medial cuneiform fracture in 26-year-old woman after dancing trauma. Because of unclear physical examination and plain x-rays film, computed tomography was necessary. Early correct diagnosis allowed appropriate conservative treatment with good result.ConclusionsCuneiform bones fractures are much more common than previously reported. Computed tomography should be considered even in cases of low energy trauma.
