The association of ipsilateral talar and calcaneal fractures is an uncommon combination and is typically the result of a high-energy trauma. It is often associated with comminution, marked fracture displacement, and soft-tissue compromise. Obtaining satisfactory clinical and radiographic results is very challenging. Residual deformities, multiple procedures, and limitations are usually the norm. Therefore, studies have suggested that primary arthrodesis may represent the best option of surgical treatment. In this study, we report a case of a 30-year-old male patient with a rare combination of a highly comminuted transcalcaneal fracture-dislocation associated with a talar neck fracture successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with an 18-month follow-up. This case demonstrates that even when there are associated fractures of the talus and calcaneus with severe bone loss, ORIF may provide satisfactory outcomes in the short-term postoperative period.

High-energy trauma can cause transsyndesmotic ankle fracture dislocation. These fractures are quite rare. Here we present a clinical case of a male patient with this type of injury. A systematic review of PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, and Embase electronic databases revealed only two prior publications on a similar topic. We discuss the typical clinical features of these injuries, the treatment of high-energy trauma which can cause transsyndesmotic ankle fracture dislocation, and its prognosis.

Bilateral acetabular fractures have been documented in the setting of high-energy trauma, but few reports regarding atraumatic bilateral acetabular fractures exist. The following is a case report of bilateral insufficiency acetabular fractures which occurred acutely in the absence of trauma in a 49-year-old female. The case highlights the importance of perioperative awareness of those patients at significant risk of insufficiency fractures and offers a relatively elegant, less invasive solution for early mobilization in the context of acetabula insufficiency fractures.

Chronic osteomyelitis is a severe and persistent condition that engages bone and bone marrow. The infection can be limited to the bone, or it can propagate to the bone marrow, the periosteum, and the surrounding soft tissues. It represents a major financial every health system and impacts the quality of life of the affected patients. Diagnosing chronic osteomyelitis remains difficult. Accordingly, laboratory and imaging studies are necessary in this respect. A 49-year-old man after high energy trauma underwent debridmant and fixation. After 3 years’ patient admitted in infection ward with fever presentation. The clinical examination didn't reveal any sign of localization of fever. Chronic osteomyelitis is not always associated with fever in this situation Other diagnoses should be considered after role out other disease osteomyelitis

Complex defects in the soft tissues of the foot and ankle caused by high-energy trauma, infection, cancer or diabetes require rapid and effective treatment which decreases the risk of infection, bone healing time, hospital stay and number total of surgical approaches. Authors report a clinical case of a 23-year-old female patient who suffers high-energy trauma due to a motorcycle accident which causes exposure of the distal third of the tibia, loss of the tibial joint face, and loss of tissue throughout the region of the malleolus medial of the right pelvic extremity. Tissue transfer to the pelvic limb is performed using left contralateral radial antebrachial free flap as donor area. This case report aims to emphasize the key aspects of the high energy trauma approach by using microvascular flaps, as well as the satisfactory evolution of the patient that directly affects the prognosis for life and function.

Proximal humerus fracture-dislocation is a rare condition that occurs mostly in young adults due to high energy trauma and about 60-79 percent of misdiagnosis is occurred in the first diagnosis. In this article, we present two patients with proximal humerus fracture-posterior dislocation the fractures of whom were diagnosed, but after the radiographic studies including x-ray and computer tomography (CT) scan, the posterior dislocation was misdiagnosed. In addition, complications, management, and avoidance of this misdiagnosis were discussed.

Traumatic rupture of the posterior tibialis tendon is an extremely infrequent condition, which mostly occurred due to a traumatic mechanism of pronation and external rotation, less commonly in direct trauma on the medial side of the ankle. This lesion is overlooked preoperatively most of the time because of the limitation of physical examination owing to acute pain and swelling secondary to a medial malleolar fracture. Early diagnosis and treatment of this injury are very important to prevent the complications like acquired flatfoot deformity. Few cases have been described in the literature for the posterior tibialis tendon rupture associated with a closed ankle fracture. Here we report an acute rupture of the posterior tibialis tendon associated with a closed medial malleolar fracture after a high-energy trauma in a healthy 33-year-old man. We fixed the medial malleolar fracture with two screws and repaired the tendon with a direct end-to-end suture. We hope that our study can be helpful for other colleagues to consider this lesion in similar circumstances.

The acute foot compartment syndrome is uncommon and occurs after high energy trauma. Your treatment is considered an orthopedic emergency and a fasciotomy becomes needed. However, after the inicial fase of damage control, the cover up of the incision is necessary. That can be done on the primary moment through parcial skin grafting or delayed primary, through the same technique or through direct suture. As an alternative, this case describes the use of polypropylene prosthesis, inicially described in musculoskeletal trauma of finger tips, as an adjunct to the healing process of foot fasciotomies. The main benefits of this technique are the achievement of one single surgical procedure and the absence of the typical morbidity that comes with skin grafting.
