  • Title: Dorsal Chopart's fracture dislocation - A rare injury.
    Author: Donthi SR, Veerappa LA.
    Journal: Foot (Edinb); 2021 Sep; 48():101834. PubMed ID: 34388425.
    Abstract:
    A rare case of Dorsal Chopart's fracture dislocation after a fall from height is presented. It combines the features of pure dorsal Chopart's dislocation and the longitudinal swivel variant described by Main and Jowett presenting as dorsomedial fracture dislocation of the medial three fourths of the navicular, crushing the lateral one fourth. The possible mechanism of injury has been described. It has been successfully treated with closed reduction and percutaneous k-wire fixation. At two-year follow-up the patient was asymptomatic, back to his moderately active work.
