The tenuous arterial network and central watershed area predispose the navicular to stress fractures and healing complications. Diagnosing these stress fractures can be difficult for Certified Athletic Trainers due to the ambiguous and insidious nature of these injuries. Identifying risk factors and clinical signs of navicular stress fractures is important to optimally treat these injuries. Intrinsic risk factors include female sex, characteristics of the \u201cfemale athlete triad,\u201d relative energy deficiency in sports, previous foot injury, and dietary insufficiencies. Historically, navicular stress fractures were managed conservatively with 6\u2009weeks of protected nonweightbearing (NWB). Recent literature has found faster return to activity (RTA) and decreased complication rates with operative open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) for treating type 2 and type\u20093 injuries in high-level athletes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Evidence Acquisition:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A retrospective review of PubMed\/MEDLINE was performed to identify articles.
