Chronic Swivel Dislocation of the Talonavicular Joint Due to Low-Energy Trauma: A Case Report
Abstract
Midfoot dislocations are rare injuries, and talonavicular joint dislocations often go unnoticed. In the literature, reports of swivel dislocations are limited to case studies, most of which are associated with high-energy trauma and acute kinematics. We present a case of a swivel dislocation with a six-week evolution following low-energy trauma. This report discusses the management of this unusual condition and how an earlier diagnosis could have been suspected and achieved.Downloads
