Abstract:
This article presents a case report on a 17-year-old girl who sustained a dislocation fracture of the talus, and was treated with external fixation. The fracture healed with a good result. After a 1-year follow-up, the patient had completely normal, pain-free mobility in the ankle joint. There were no radiographic signs of osteonecrosis.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
