<unk>  (also spelled "Kohler" and referred to in some texts as<unk>  I) is a rare bone disorder of the foot found in children between six and nine years of age. The disease typically affects boys, but it can also affect girls. It was first described in 1908 by Alban<unk>  (1874–1947), a German radiologist. Dr. A.<unk>  noted that children with foot pain displayed characteristics, within their x-rays, of irregularity in growth and development of the tarsal navicular bone in the foot. Furthermore,<unk>  is known to affect five times more boys than girls and typically, only one foot is affected. The disease was then found to belong to a group of conditions called osteochondroses, which disturb bone growth at ossification centres which occurs during bone development. It is caused when the navicular bone temporarily loses its blood supply. As a result, tissue in the bone dies and the bone collapses. When treated, it causes no long term problems in most cases although rarely can return in adults. As the navicular bone gets back to normal, symptoms typically abate. In February 2010, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that the 19-year-old king Tutankhamun may well have died of complications from malaria combined with<unk>  II.
