Abstract
Subtalar dislocation is the simultaneous dislocation of the talocalcaneal and talonavicular joints of the foot, typically caused by falls from heights, twisting leg injuries and motor vehicle accidents. The vast majority, around 85%, are medial dislocations whereas the lateral type occurs much less frequently. We report a medial subtalar dislocation, which was treated with closed reduction and cast for 6 weeks.
