  • Title: Concomitant medial facet and dome fractures of the talus.
    Author: Storm M, Matan Y, London E, Elioshov O, Howard CB, Nyska M.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 1996; 35(4):331-4. PubMed ID: 8872756.
    Abstract:
    Osteochondral fracture of the dome of the talus is a well known complication of an inversion injury of the ankle. Recently the authors encountered a patient having a talar dome fracture associated with intra-articular fracture of the medial facet after inversion injury of the ankle. The authors have been unable to find a medial facet intra-articular fracture reported in the English literature. The talar dome fragment was removed arthroscopically and the medial facet fragment was removed using an open surgical approach. The mechanism of injury and the operative approach are discussed.
