Isolated medial subtalar dislocation: A case report and a review of the current literature
Öz
Introduction:
Acute subtalar joint dislocations are simultaneous dislocations of talocalcaneal and talonavicular joints with a rare incidence in traumatology. These fractures usually occur as a result of high-energy traumas and are accompanied in high numbers by soft tissue injuries and ankle fractures. However, isolated medial sub-dislocations are very rare.
Case Presentation:
In this case report, we present a 32-year-old male patient who applied to the emergency service after falling from a height. Physical and radiographic examinations revealed an isolated medial subtalar dislocation in the left ankle. The patient underwent closed reduction under sedation in the emergency service and was discharged after 24 hours of follow-up. Three weeks later, rehabilitation was started. After 3 weeks of rehabilitation, the patient was started with partial weight bearing and switched to full weight bearing after eight weeks. At the end of 18 months, the patient did not present with any symptoms.
Discussion:
Subtalar dislocations are emergency cases of traumatology. Medial dislocations are more frequently seen due to the instability caused by the inversion of the foot. Reduction should be provided as soon as possible. In the treatment of isolated medial subdural dislocations, immediate reduction offers excellent long-term functional outcomes particularly in cases that are not accompanied by additional bone and soft tissue pathologies.
