title: Total dislocation of the talus and the navicular: a case report.
abstract: Total dislocation of the talonavicular joint is rare. Detection of a major tarsal bone extrusion is simple. However, its management and treatment are not. We present a case of a total extrusion of the talus and navicular of an open dislocation and the reconstruction options that subsequently followed. In spite of a well-perfused foot, our patient decided to undergo a below the knee amputation after an infection.
