Abstract:
This article describes a rare case of an open subtalar dislocation of the internal variety caused by a horseback riding accident. The patient was a 43-year-old with no previous medical history. An emergency reduction was performed in the operating room under general anesthesia, and external osteosynthesis was used to stabilize the joint. Following ankle rehabilitation, the patient's evolution was satisfactory, and after four months, the patient resumed their sports activities. The functional outcome was good after an 18-month follow-up. This case report emphasizes the importance of timely and appropriate management of rare injuries to achieve positive outcomes.
