Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Traumatology
  • Foot and ankle biomechanics

Background:

  • Pericuboid fracture-dislocation is a rare and complex foot injury.
  • It involves disruption of multiple tarsal articulations, including the midtarsal, tarsometatarsal, and pericuboid joints.
  • Accurate diagnosis and management are crucial for optimal functional recovery.

Observation:

  • A 44-year-old male presented with a traumatic pericuboid fracture-dislocation.
  • The injury involved partial dislocation of the cuboid without a concurrent fracture.
  • Disruption extended to the midtarsal, tarsometatarsal, and pericuboid articulations.

Findings:

  • Treatment involved open reduction and stable internal fixation of the disrupted articulations.
  • A rehabilitation protocol emphasizing early range of motion and protected weight-bearing for 12 weeks was implemented.
  • The patient achieved excellent functional outcomes at the final follow-up evaluation.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the successful management of a severe foot injury through surgical intervention and structured rehabilitation.
  • Early range of motion and protected weight-bearing appear to be effective strategies for optimizing recovery in such cases.
  • Further research into standardized treatment protocols for pericuboid fracture-dislocations may improve patient outcomes.
