Abstract:
Fractures of the talus are life-changing events. The talus is of vital importance to normal gait. Given its importance, great care is needed in diagnosing and treating these injuries. The threshold for operative treatment and accurate anatomic reduction should be low. Surgical tenets include the avoidance of extensive subperiosteal dissection to minimize vascular disruption. The complications with injuries to the talus are extensive and include avascular necrosis (AVN). Although AVN can prove to be a devastating sequela from this injury, it occurs less frequently than posttraumatic arthritis.

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...
