These are the sesamoids. A good example is the kneecap (patella), which is the largest sesamoid. Two other very small sesamoids, each about the size of a kernel of corn, are found in the underside of the forefoot near the big toe, one on the outer side of the foot and the other closer to the middle of the foot.n many people, the sesamoid bone nearer the center of the foot (the medial sesamoid) has two parts (bipartite). Because the edges of a bipartite medial sesamoid are generally smooth, and the edges of a fractured sesamoid are generally jagged, an X-ray is useful in making an appropriate diagnosis.
