Abstract
Dislocation of the Chopart joint is uncommon and only a few reports have appeared in the literature. We report rare case of medioplanter fracture-dislocation of the Chopart joint. The patient was a 19-year-old man, who was injured in a traffic accident. Radiologically, there was a medioplanter dislocation of the Chopart joint accompanied by a fracture of the navicularbone and calcaneus. Reduction was done by the manual closed method under direct traction of the forefoot. The clinical course was favorable and the patient returned to his post.
