Abstract
Four children with midtarsal dislocations are described. Two of the four pa tients had a delay in diagnosis because of associated midtarsal injuries de tracting from the main pathology. The key pathology was a dislocation or su bluxation of the calcaneocuboid joint. The lateral radiograph was the most consistent view in making the diagnosis.
