HEGDE, Atmananda; MANE, Prajwal y SHETTY, Chethan B. A case of closed isolated medial subtalar dislocation. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2023, vol.37, n.4 Epub 02-Mayo-2024. ISSN 1561-3100.
Introduction:
Closed isolated subtalar dislocations are very rare and major cause of subtalar dislocation remains to be road traffic accidents.

On evaluation he was found to have medial subtalar dislocation reduced with manual traction. One year follow up showed, no residual deformity or pain and had very good functional outcome.
Conclusions:
It is of great importance to identify the difference between medial subluxation or dislocation and medial swivel injury which have different mechanisms as well as different reduction maneuvers.
