Long-term result of a pure tibiotalar dislocation in a child.
Pure ankle dislocation without fracture is a very rare injury in children. We report the case of a 9-year-old patient who sustained open medial dislocation of the tibiotalar joint without fracture. The management, contributive factors, and long-term results are reported with a review of the literature.
