[Fracture of the neck of the talus with pantalar dislocation (case report)].
The author describes the treatment of a fracture of the neck of the talus with pantalar dislocation. In this injury, healing prognosis depends on the preservation of blood supply to the talus, because there is high risk of necrosis development in the body of the talus. He reports a good functional outcome of conservative therapy by closed reduction followed by immobilization for 3 months and avoidance of using the leg for 6 months. Three years after the injury the patient was without any necrotic signs in the body of the talus, and returned fully to his sports activities at the same level as before the injury.
