<p>Background<strong>: </strong>Calcaneum is the largest and longest tarsal bone in the foot and forms the prominence of the heel. Objective<strong>: </strong>The aim of the study was to observe the variations in the morphology and morphometry of the talar articular facets on the superior surface of human calcanei in South-Eastern Nigeria. Materials and Methods<strong>: </strong>The study was carried out on 220 adult non-pathological dry calcanei of unknown sex from bone banks of various medical colleges in South-Eastern Nigeria. Each calcaneum was examined for various patterns of articulating facets. Results<strong>: </strong>Pattern 1 was 55.4% of the studied population, Pattern II 7.7%, Pattern III 12.7% and Pattern IV 24%. The oval shap...
