| Sumario: | Extruded talus is a rare injury pattern that occurs following a high velocity injury loading on a supinated and plantar flexed foot. Treatment for such rare presentation varies from talectomy to arthrodesis. Reimplantation than excision has been favoured in literature, but it carries its own subset of issues to tackle from avascular necrosis to infection. Masquelet technique has been a saviour for open injuries most of the time in tackling both bone defects and infections. We present a case of open ankle injury with talar extrusion and assosciated talar bone loss along with calcaneum fracture, treated by masquelet technique. |
