If you call me and you tell me, I think I have a cuboid stress fracture, the first thing I’d say is…pretty unlikely.
In fact, cuboid stress fractures are less than 1% of all the stress fractures that happen in the foot in athletes.
So they really are very rare.
One thing you can get that’s actually much more common is arthritis within the joint. That’s also pretty rare, but you can tell the difference.
How can a runner tell the difference between a cuboid stress fracture or calcaneocuboid joint arthritis?
Well, that’s what we’re talking about today on the Doc On The Run podcast.

Thank you so much for this video! I have a similar problem as the athlete you talked about here, OA with cystic change on my calcaneo-cuboid joint. I tried to book an appointment online with you but was rejected. I am in Australia. Could you kindly let me know an alternative way to make an appointment? Many thanks 🙏

Very interesting and timely video. Just going through a diagnosis for ankle pain similar to this. MRI shows nothing so far, suspected sinus tarsia syndrome but injection in there did nothing at all. Gait analysis and custom insoles not helped either so now looking at potential problem with the calcaneocuboid joint (CT scan probably next). Very annoying and frustrating as I cannot run (even walking long distances brings on the pain later/next day). Certainly starting to suspect some element of arthritic issue. Thanks for posting this.

I was just diagnosed with advanced calcanealcuboid arthritis. I had been dealing with peroneal tendon issues and decided to get an MRI to see why the treatment/PT wasn't responding and this came up. I'm crushed. What is the ultimate prognosis for this. Surgery option looks like fusion, which seems like a death nail for trail running.
