The plural form of calcaneum, referring to multiple heel bones.
From Latin calcaneus + -a (neuter plural ending), forming the plural of calcaneum for anatomical discussions involving multiple heel bones.
Latin plurals can seem confusing, but this one makes sense: calcaneum becomes calcannea, similar to how 'stadium' becomes 'stadia'—it's a pattern that helps doctors discuss anatomy precisely.
