Peroneus Tendon Dislocation Associated with Fracture of Lateral Process of Talus: A Case Report: Youn Soo Hwang, Sung Jun Jo, Kwang Yeol Kim, Hyung Chun Kim, Dong Seon Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2014;27(3):222-226. Published online July 31, 2014; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2014.27.3.222

Abstract PDF: Traumatic peroneal tendon dislocation in association with fracture of the lateral process of the talus is a rare injury, which is difficult to diagnose. As a result, early detection is often delayed, which in turn leads to ankle pain and dysfunction. We treated a patient by open reduction and screw fixation in fracture of the lateral process of talus and primary repair of the superior peroneal retinaculum. We report this case with a brief review of the literature.

Analysis and Clinical Study on Fracture Dislocation of the Talus: Ye Yeon Won, Chang Hoon Jeon, Jae In Ahn, Seung Jun Choi, Jung Mo Lee; J Korean Soc Fract 2000;13(2):382-389. Published online April 30, 2000; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2000.13.2.382

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
: Talar fractures are uncommon and so surgeon's experience in the treatment of the talar fracture is limited. This study was undertaken to evaluate the incidence, associated injuries, complications of talar fracture and results of treatment.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
: Authors experienced 15 cases of the talar fractures treated at Ajou university Hospital from 1995 to 1998 with minimal 1 year follow-up period and obtained following result.
RESULTS
: Of 15 cases, fall down injury was the most common cause of injury(11/15). 4 ipsilateral medial malleolar fractures, 2 lateral malleolar fractures and other associated injury was occured. According to the Hawkins' classification 5 cases in type I , 1 cases in typeII, 2 cases in typeIII were observed. 2 posttraumatic arthritis, 1 skin necrosis, 1 avascular necrosis, were observed as complications but nonunion was not observed.
CONCLUSIONS
: We suggest that early and accurate anatomical reduction and rigid internal fixation of the fracture dislocation of the talus canprevent complications such as acascular necrosis, posttraumatic arthritis.

Clinical Observation for the Treatment of Talus Fracture: Yung Khee Chung, Baek Yong Song, Yong Whan Woo; J Korean Soc Fract 1989;2(2):189-193. Published online November 30, 1989; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1989.2.2.189

Abstract PDF: Major fractures and dislocations of the talus are uncommon, but the management of this fracture and of the complications is difficult. The results of treatment of this fracture as a whole are generally poor. This is mostly due to frequent complications such as avascular necrosis of the talus. The authors analyzed the 13 cases of the talus fracture and evaluated the results. We obtained the following results; 1. In final results, 3 cases were excellent, 4, cases were good, 3 cases were fair and 2 cases were poor. 2. Avascular necorsis of the talar body occurred in 4 cases of all fractures. 3. Other complications were arthrofibrosis, subtalar arthritis, infection and drsal exostosis of the talar neck.
