There are scant reports in the literature. Accordingly, there is no consensus about the appropriate treatment of the extruded talus. We present the case of a 33-year-old man who sustained an isolated open total talar dislocation focusing on its management and outcome and review the literature. Open total talar dislocation is a terrible injury and its treatment is demanding. Early reimplantation of the talus appears to be a relatively risk-free and feasible procedure. Talectomy should be considered as a salvage procedure.}, URL ={https://www.archtrauma.com/article.asp?issn=2251-953X;year=2017;volume=6;issue=3;spage=49;epage=52;aulast=Steinmetz;t=6}, eprint ={https://www.archtrauma.com/article.asp?issn=2251-953X;year=2017;volume=6;issue=3;spage=49;epage=52;aulast=Steinmetz;t=6} }
