The first case of a bilateral osteochondroma of the talus that presented with peroneal tendinitis and second of a case that presented as bilateral Haglund syndrome secondary to osteochondroma of the calcaneum. Both cases presented with an increase in size of the swelling in the sixth decade of life. This unusual presentation and bilaterality has not been reported in the literature.
