A 42 year old male patient complained of increasing pain and mass around the right ankle with 4 months duration. Simple Roentgenogram and CT showed ill-defined osteolysis and cortical perforation in the neck of the right talus. The pathologic findings showed high grade osteoblastic osteosarcoma. The tumor mass of the ankle increased and pulmonary metastasis was found in spite of administrating of two cycles of preoperative chemotherapy. Below-knee amputation and open wedge pulmonary resection were performed for primary lesion and multiple pulmoanry metastasis, respectively. However, the patient died with multiple pulmonary metastasis in spite of three cycles of postoperative chemotherapy at ten months after the operation.

Purpose: The clinical and radiological results of patients with type 3 talar neck fractures treated with the anteromedial approach using medial malleolar osteotomy and large distractor were analyzed retrospectively. Materials and Methods: From March 2009 to August 2016, 12 patients with a type 3 talar neck fracture, who underwent the anteromedial approach using a medial malleolar osteotomy and large distractor and who could be followed-up for more than 12 months after the operation, were examined. The patients were examined for the presence of Hawkins signs by anteroposterior and lateral radiographs and osteonecrosis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the postoperative 3 months. Subsequently, every 3 months, radiographic union was assessed by a simple radiograph and clinical symptoms. Twelve months postoperatively, posttraumatic arthritis was assessed and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score was analyzed. Results: In 7 cases, osteonecrosis was found on MRI performed 3 months after surgery. On the other hand, at the 12 months follow-up, all of them obtained AOFAS scores of 83.86±4.53 without surgical treatment. Radiographic union was achieved in all cases. The mean union period was 5.3 months. In 10 cases, traumatic arthritis was found after the radiographical and clinical evaluation. In addition, all of them could carry on everyday life by conservative treatment. The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was measured to be 85.17 on average. Other complications included superficial wound infection in 2 cases. Conclusion: An anteromedial approach using a medial malleolar osteotomy and a large distractor in the surgical treatment of patients with type 3 talar neck fractures can achieve anatomical reduction of the displaced fragment without a lateral dissection. This is considered to be another good surgical option.

Purpose: To report the treatment results of arthroscopic osteochondroplasty in osteochondral lesion of the talus. Materials and Methods: This study included 32 patients who had osteochondral lesion of the talus treated with arthroscopic osteochondroplasty and were able to be followed up over 3 years from 1999 to 2007. The mean follow up period was 48 (38-108) months, and 22 male patients and 10 female patients with a mean age of 34 (20-56) years were included. Locations of lesion were evaluated with simple X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and severities of lesions were classified by Berndt and Harty classification. All cases were treated by arthroscopic debridement or microfracture. The treatment results were assessed by American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scale and subjective and functional score of Kailkkonen. The group treated by arthroscopic microfracture was compared with the group treated by arthroscopic debridement. Results: The mean AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scale was significantly improved 53 (${\pm}7$) points preoperatively to 84 (${\pm}8$) points postoperatively (P<0.001). The mean subjective and functional score was also improved 55 (${\pm}8$) points preoperatively to 88 (${\pm}8$) points postoperatively with statistical significant (P<0.001). There were no relations between the severity of lesions and the postoperative functional score of ankle (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the clinical results between the group treated with arthroscopic microfracture and the group treated with arthroscopic debridement (P>0.05). Conclusion: Arthroscopic osteochondroplasty of osteochondral lesion of the talus shows excellent result in terms of patients' satisfaction. There were no significant differences in the clinical results between arthroscopic microfracture group and debridement group.
