Abstract

Concomitant fracture of medial tubercle of posterior process and lateral process of the talus has not been reported in Korean literature. Association between fracture of lateral and posterior process of talus is not clear. We treated with open reduction and screw fixation in fracture of lateral process and with excision of fragment of posteromedial tubercle of posterior process with satisfying result.
