Abstract:
Although talus fractures are not common among foot and ankle injuries, their treatment is difficult because of their complications and poor prognosis. They can be treated conservatively or surgically, with a variety of treatment protocols. At present, the main strategy of surgical treatment is to use strong and effective fixation to restore anatomic structure of the talus and preserve blood supply to the talus as much as possible so that deformity can be avoided and early healing be facilitated. This paper reviews the difficulties and current situation, and summarizes principles and the latest progress in clinical treatment of talus fractures, hoping to provide useful references for the treatment.
