The Edinburgh variant of a talar body fracture: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a novel closed pantalar dislocation with an associated sagittal medial talar body and medial malleolus fractures. Closed reduction was attempted unsuccessfully. Open reduction was performed, revealing a disrupted talonavicular joint with instability of the calcaneocuboid joint. This configuration required stabilisation with an external fixator. There were no signs of avascular necrosis, or arthrosis at 15 months follow but is currently using a stick to mobilise.

Laboratory and radiographic exams did not support any specific diagnosis either. Subsequently bone scan was performed and increased activity in the ankle due to cuboid fracture was incidentally observed.
متن کاملUnusual fracture combination in a paediatric acute ankle (combined medial talar compression fracture with medial malleolus fracture in an immature skeleton): a case report
Talar compression fractures are uncommon orthopaedic injuries, especially in the immature skeleton. Fractures of the talar body constitute >5% of all foot and ankle fractures. The combination of a medial compression fracture and corresponding medial malleolar fracture is rare and not previously reported injury in the literature. We present a case report of a skeletally immature 15-year-old Cauc...

متن کاملTalar body fracture combined with traumatic rupture of anterior talofibular ligament and peroneal longus tendon.
A rare case of talar body fracture combined with traumatic rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament and peroneal longus tendon is presented and reports in the literature are reviewed. We suggest that the mechanism of the injury was initial plantar flexion and inversion with rupture of anterior talofibular ligament and peroneal longus tendon, followed by forced dorsiflexion with talar body f...

The purpose of this case report is to describe the clinical presentation of a patient who suffered from a fracture of the lateral tubercle of the posterior talar process caused by a fall while rock-climbing. The initial evaluation revealed diffuse ankle swelling, tenderness, and pain at the distal aspect of both malleoli. Plain film radiography revealed a fracture of the posterior process of th...
