Abstract
- Although calcaneal fracture is relatively common in ankle injury, open intraarticular calcaneal fracture with dorsal dislocation of the navicular from talus is extremely rare and severe injury. There are few data which are available concerning the injury mechanism and treatment options. The purpose of this report is to describe a case with bilateral open transcalcaneal fracture with talonavicular dislocation and to discuss the prevalence, mechanism of this injury, and treatment options.
