“…However, osteonecrosis is rare in children <12 years old, and the outcome might be independent of the method of treatment (6). In the case of a child who remains symptomatic after the initial treatment of a talar fracture, other rarer complications should be considered; for example, nonunion of the fracture (4) or a loose osteochondral body (12) or bone fragments (13) in the ankle. The former can be treated by delayed osteosynthesis and the latter by removal of the fragment using anterior ankle arthroscopy.…”
