East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024
Format: Case study
Length of follow up: 12 months
Level of evidence: IV
Classification: Trauma
Purpose: A combination of talar neck and body fractures are extremely rare which make up approximately <1% of all fractures in the body. They are most commonly associated with high energy trauma such as falling from a great height, motor vehicle accident, etc. Talar fractures are challenging problems to treat in terms of fixation, rates of avascular necrosis and much more. The purpose of this case report is to demonstrate that even with a severe talar fracture salvage is possible with proper surgical technique and understanding of the unique fracture pattern.
Case study: One patient underwent ORIF of a comminuted talar neck and body fracture with a lateral bridge plate and medial based interfragmentary compression screw.
Procedures: Open reduction internal fixation of talar neck and body fracture.
Results: 1 patient who demonstrated clinical and radiographic signs of healing of a talar neck and body fracture.
Analysis & Discussions: The rates of avascular necrosis of talar neck and body fractures varies …
