Simultaneous Bilateral Fracture Dislocation of the Talus: A Case Report
A bilateral talar body fracture-dislocation in a 29-year-old multitrauma patient is presented. There was a comminuted fracture associated with an ankle, subtalar and talonavicular subluxation on the right lower limb and an open fracture with complete dislocation of the body of talus on the left side. We performed a minimal invasive reduction and stabilization of the fractures with the use of K-...
متن کاملAvascular Necrosis of the Talus in Juveniles
Avascular necrosis of the talus after severe ankle injury is well known. Avascular necrosis of talus is extremely rare in juveniles. However, it has been controversial whether the incidence of AVN after fracture of talus is higher in adult than in juveniles. It is possible that the immature talus can be more susceptible to circulatory. As treatment of avascular necrosis of the talus, non-operat...

متن کاملTibiocalcaneal fusion for avascular necrosis of the talus.
Between 1994 and 1999, we treated six patients with avascular necrosis of the talus by excision of the necrotic body of the talus and tibiocalcaneal fusion using an Ilizarov frame. This was combined with corticotomy and a lengthening procedure. Shortening was corrected in all patients except two, who were over 60 years of age. All patients had previous operations which had failed. All achieved ...
متن کاملAvascular necrosis of the talus: a pictorial essay.
The talus is predisposed to avascular necrosis (AVN), or bone death due to ischemia, owing to its unique structure, characteristic extraosseous arterial sources, and variable intraosseous blood supply. Both traumatic and atraumatic causes have been implicated in talar AVN. The risk of posttraumatic AVN can be predicted using the Hawkins classification system. In addition, the "Hawkins sign" can...
