Abstract
Treatment of talus fractures with dislocation is challenging. We report three such cases (talar neck fracture 2 cases, talar body fracture 1 case). In all patients, urgent open reductions and fixations were performed under general anesthesia. The patients were followed up for an average of 8.7 months (range 6-10 months) after injury. All of the fractures healed anatomically without malunion. Post-traumatic arthritis and avascular necrosis were not observed. Urgent reduction of the fracture dislocation and fixation may minimize complications and provide good clinical outcomes.
