Abstract

LATORRE, Marcos R et al. Luxación periastragalina medial pura: reporte de casos y revisión bibliográfica. Rev. Asoc. Argent. Ortop. Traumatol. [online]. 2021, vol.86, n.1, pp.83-90. ISSN 1852-7434.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.15417/issn.1852-7434.2021.86.1.1099.

Isolated subtalar dislocations without associated fracture are a rare entity. They represent only 1% of dislocations in humans. We present a series of 3 cases of pure medial dislocations in patients who suffered high-energy trauma. In all cases, the treatment was closed reduction under anesthesia and subsequent immobilization; all with good results. Subtalar dislocations require early diagnosis and rapid resolution. The aim of this presentation is to demonstrate the importance of diagnostic suspicion and the benefit of early treatment for successful outcome.

Keywords : Subtalar dislocation; complications; closed reduction.
