Abstract
Lateral process fractures of the talus may occur either in isolation or in combination with a talar neck or body fracture. Screw fixation has been well described as a means of stabilization; however, many patients have multifragmentary fragments, unable to be controlled by isolated screw fixation alone. Plate fixation of the lateral process has been yet to be described in detail with presence of a clinical series. Here, we describe our technique of plate fixation for both isolated lateral process fractures and those that occur in conjunction with talar neck or body fracture.
