%X Cubonavicular coalition is a rare congenital anomaly involving fibrous or osseous fusion between the cuboid and navicular bones. This case report presents a comprehensive analysis of a 10-year-old female patient with cubonavicular coalition, detailing the diagnostic challenges and tailored therapeutic interventions. The patient presented with persistent left foot pain and restricted range of motion. Clinical examination, radiographic studies, and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed cubonavicular coalition. Laboratory investigations ruled out systemic inflammatory processes. A multidisciplinary approach was adopted, initially employing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and physical therapy. Surgical resection of the coalition was performed due to persistent symptoms, leading to successful outcomes. This case report contributes valuable insights into the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of cubonavicular coalition in pediatric patients. The successful outcome underscores the importance of a comprehensive and individualized approach, providing a basis for informed decision-making in similar cases. Continued research is essential to refine therapeutic algorithms and enhance understanding of rare musculoskeletal anomalies.
