A partial dislocation of this articulation is the condition met with in ' Buttress Foot.' In this case the fracture of the pyramidal process, and the consequent lengthening of the tendon of the extensor pedis, allows the os coronse to occupy upon the articulatory surface of the os pedis a more backward position than normally it should.
