title: Complete open dislocation of the navicular: a case report.
abstract: Complete dislocation of the navicular is rare, and open dislocation even more so. We report a case of a 85-year-old female patient who experienced complete open dislocation of navicular, successfully treated by open reduction and arthrodesis of the naviculocuneiform and calcaneocuboid joints. At 2 years after treatment, the patient was symptom free and had nearly normal foot function.
