Epidemiology We have only found two cases over a period of 15 years
Summary
It is a simple dislocation compared to subtalar dislocation, which is a double dislocation, and enucleation of the talus which is a triple dislocation. This is a very rare lesion that occurs in a context of violent trauma. The first case was published in 1912 by Auvray [2]. It is an emergency whose management, apart from complications (cutaneous opening, vascular and nerve lesions), is most often orthopedic: reduction under general anesthesia followed by a restraint by plaster cast. The goal of this work was to report two cases of pure talocrural dislocation, to describe its therapeutic and prognostic clinical aspects through a review of the literature
