ABSTRACT
Talar enucleation is a very infrequent injury; the reported cases have a traumatic etiology. These injuries are important because they occur in individuals in productive ages and result in irreversible complications and sequelae, such as talarthrosis, osteomyelitis and avascular necrosis. This is why we report herein the case of a 33 year-old patient with posttraumatic open enucleation of the left talus, with bone loss at the site of trauma. He was treated with cadaver bone graft plus subtalar arthrodesis using a retrograde endomedullary nail. We present the patient’s one-year course and follow-up.
