The early complications of subtalar dislocation.
Although the treatments and results of subtalar dislocations are usually considered as nonproblematical, review of 10 cases seen over a 6-year period proved otherwise. Difficulties were encountered with four of these cases consisting of associated foot injuries, failure to recognize the dislocation, incarceration of the dislocation, vascular complications, and iatrogenic infection. The management of these cases is discussed.
