Abstract

Subtalar dislocations are rare and represent approximately 1% to 2% of all dislocations. This article reviews the literature concerning treatment, complications and late complications with prognosis. Lateral dislocations often lead to poor results due to the frequency of open injuries and associated fractures. This may result in arthritis requiring subtalar arthrodesis.
