13 lut 2020 · Talus fractures continue to represent a challenging and commonly encountered group of injuries. Its near-complete articular cartilage surface, and its role in force transmission between the...
23 maj 2023 · This activity addresses the presentation, evaluation, and management of talus fracture and examines the role of an interprofessional team approach on the care of affected patients. Objectives: Describe the anatomy of the talus bone.
Talus fractures can be classified anatomically as head, neck, body and process fractures. Neck fractures are defined as being be- tween the head and anterior to the lateral process. Body fractures are defined as posterior to the lateral process or extending into it. Talar neck fractures are classified according to Hawkins classi-
The talus is the key articular segment linking the leg and foot, and as such, is subject to complex loads and may occa-sionally fracture. Fracture patterns provide clues to the underlying pathomechanics and energy of the injury, both of which can help guide treatment and suggest prognosis.
Fractures of the talar body are even more rare than talar neck fractures and are generally believed to be caused by high-energy axial loading of the tibiotalar joint.
1 lis 2021 · Talus fractures are disabling injuries. Most injuries to the talar neck and body result from high energy trauma. However, talus process injuries may occur secondary to moderate or low energy mechanisms [1].
