Combined Talar Body and Medial Malleolous Fracture: A Case Report

Abstract

The combination of ipsilateral talar body and medial malleolus fracture is rare to occur. Such injuries are seen in multiply injured and polytraumatised patients. The high variability of talar fractures, their relatively low incidence together with the high percentage of concomitant injuries makes treatment of these injuries a challenge to the surgeon. Open reduction and adequate internal fixation followed by supervised aggressive physiotherapy gives good functional outcome as in this case.
