31 Μαΐ 2024 · The talar body fracture pattern dictates the surgical approach. A portion of the anterior talar body is accessible through both the anteromedial and anterolateral incisions. Simple sagittal fractures can be treated using a single exposure, and the incision chosen is based on the fracture orientation seen on the CT scan. Joint
17 Φεβ 2024 · Surgical management of talus fractures can challenge the most experienced foot and ankle surgeon. Talus fractures can vary in presentation from simple avulsion fractures about the head and neck with inversion ankle sprains, to severe high-energy neck and body fractures with joint dislocation.
