Purpose: This study was designed to analyze the usefulness of Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography (SPECT/CT) in diagnosing symptomatic accessory tarsal bones. Materials and Methods: Twenty four feet (16 patients) with symptomatic accessory navicular and/or os trigonum, who agreed to take SPECT/CT, were included in this study. Fifteen feet had accessory navicular, five had os trigonum, and four had both. According to the uptake in the SPECT/CT, 11 feet were classified into high and 13 into low uptake groups. The low uptake group was treated non-operatively, while the high uptake group received operations when initial conservative management failed. A modified Kidner procedure was performed for accessory navicular and arthroscopic excision was done for os trigonum. After a mean follow-up of 6.8 (range, 3~13) months, the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain were compared. Results: Patients in the high uptake group had a higher initial mean VAS score ($7.0{pm}0.8$ vs $2.2{pm}0.9$, p<0.05) and a lower initial mean AOFAS score ($45.9{pm}9.2$ vs $83.9{pm}4.2$, p<0.05) compared to the low uptake group. All patients in the low uptake group improved after non-operative treatment. Seven patients underwent operations and had a decreased VAS ($1.6{pm}0.5$) and an increased AOFAS score ($88.3{pm}1.8$) at the last follow-up. Four patients in the high uptake group demonstrated erratic symptoms. Conclusion: SPECT/CT can be a useful diagnostic tool and helpful in designing treatment plans for symptomatic accessory navicular and os trigonum.
