Abstract

Talar neck fractures are severe injuries, and their complications can lead to significant functional disability. Open reduction and internal fixation still constitute the treatment of choice. We report a case of a patient with a Hawkins type III talar neck fracture who was treated successfully with the use of an entirely arthroscopic technique. Four arthroscopic portals were used to control fracture reduction and fixation, which was made by two cannulated screws. There were no complications, and the patient returned uneventfully to her previous daily activities. Therapeutic study, Case report with no comparison group, Level IV.
