Arthroscopically assisted resection of overlooked fracture of posterior talar procesus
Introduction. The fractures of the posterior process of the talus are relatively rare injuries of the ankle. They most frequently occur via the mechanism of the forced hyper plantar flexion and inversion. Sometimes they are not initially diagnosed, since over 40% of cases of the fractures of the pos...

| Sumario: | Introduction. The fractures of the posterior process of the talus are relatively rare injuries of the ankle. They most frequently occur via the mechanism of the forced hyper plantar flexion and inversion. Sometimes they are not initially diagnosed, since over 40% of cases of the fractures of the posterior process of the talus are not seen in the initial radiography. The objective of this work is the review of the case study of the arthroscopically treated unhealed fracture of the posterior process of the talus. Case outline. In our case report we present a 30-year-old male, professional soccer player, with a threemonth-long history of chronic pain in the region of the left ankle and heel and the fracture of the posterior process of the talus. Conclusion. The work shows all the advantages of minimally invasive surgery – arthroscopic excision of the fragment, quick recovery and returning to physical activities. |
