Title: Traumatic talus extrusion: case reports and literature review. Author: Van Opstal N, Vandeputte G. Journal: Acta Orthop Belg; 2009 Oct; 75(5):699-704. PubMed ID: 19999887. Abstract: Total talar dislocation is a rare injury, which is usually open and with associated fractures. We report two cases of open anterolateral talar extrusions following high-energy traffic accidents. Both were treated with wound debridement, joint irrigation, closed reduction and external fixation. At 12 months follow-up, both patients had pain-free motion of the ankle without any signs of avascular necrosis or arthritis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
