Abstract:
Posterior process fractures of the talus are rare so that they are likely to be overlooked. In recent years, a deeper understanding of the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of these fractures has led to increasing treatment methods for them, but there are still no standard treatment guidelines. This article reviews the anatomy, classification, and treatment methods (including conservative management, open reduction and internal fixation, arthroscopic techniques, percutaneous closed reduction and internal fixation and robot-assisted reduction and fixation) of posterior process fractures of the talus, hoping to provide references for those surgeons who may select optimal treatment options for various kinds of the fractures.
