Med Channel Jan ;7(3):37-8.

One Hundred Eight (108) Os calcis present in the bone bank of department of Anatomy Peoples Medical College for girls, Nawabshah, were studied macroscopically with Hand Lens. Type 1 in 66.7% showed one continuous facet on the sustentaculum extending to the distomedial calcanean corner, Type 11 in 26.8% presented two facets, one sustentacular, one distal calcanean, Type 111 in 4.6% possessed only a single sustentacular facet, and Type IV in 1.9% showed calcanei with all anterior and posterior facets confluent were seen. We conclude that variations for facets for talus on superior or proximal surface of calcanei are due to racial and regional differences.
