Zusammenfassung:The os supratalare is quite a rare accessory ossicle of the ankle and the foot. We present imaging findings of a symptomatic os supratalare in a 21-year-old woman with a painful bump of the dorsal aspect on her hind foot. CT and MRI are helpful to distinguish this accessory ossicle from a fracture or an osteochondroma. Knowledge of imaging findings and clinical significances of os supratalare will be helpful for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. KCI Citation Count: 0
