Cuboid

Anatomy Tarsal bone. Articulates proximally/back with calcaneus, forward with 4th and 5th (laterally) metatarsals, in/medially with lateral (3rd) cuneiform and sometimes the navicular. Cuboid + navicular + 3 cuneiforms = midfoot (form arches of foot). Clinical Damage to nearby muscles, ligaments, joints, can lead to partial dislocation (subluxation) cuboid, with lateral foot pain and weakness
