Abstract:
Posteromedial process fracture is a rare injury. its diagnosis can go unnoticed, especially when other lesions appear in the foreground. the surgical approach of these fractures is difficult, due to the vascular and nervous elements which block the passage and requires a good understanding of the fracture to properly treat it. We report through the case of a 23-year-old young man presenting a fracture of the posteromedial process associated with a subtalar dislocation, the mechanism, diagnosis and treatment of this fracture.
