“…Fahey and Murphy classified this injury according to the anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, and upward direction of the displacement as well as the combined forms. The tibiofibular syndesmosis is undisrupted, except in the upward dislocations. At present, plantarflexion has been suggested to be the main component in combined movements causing tibiotalar dislocation because the tibiotalar joint is relatively unstable in the maximal plantarflexion position.…”

“…Tibiotalar joint dislocation without an associated fracture is a very uncommon injury. The rarity of this injury is due to the mechanical efficacy of the ankle mortise and the resistance of ligaments being greater than bone, making fracture common.…”

Pure tibiotalar dislocation without an associated fracture is an extremely rare injury. We present three cases of closed posteromedial tibiotalar dislocation without any associated fractures to the foot, ankle, or leg. All patients were treated conservatively with immediate closed reduction under general or local anaesthesia and immobilised in a short leg cast for six weeks without weight-bearing resulting in a satisfactory outcome at the final follow-up. A review of the literature is also presented in this paper.

Ankle dislocation is total loss of contact between the articular surfaces of the talus and the ankle mortise. It occurs following violent high-energy trauma and is often associated with fractures. As ankle dislocation without associated fracture is rare, bilateral involvement is extremely rare.We report clinical and radiological features, treatment principles and long-term outcome of a 26-year-old professional footballer who sustained a bilateral closed posterior ankle dislocation without fracture during sport accident. He was treated by closed reduction under luoroscopy guidance and immobilization with bilateral below knee plaster casts for six weeks. After removal of the casts, intensive rehabilitation program was initiated. He has made an uneventful recovery and returned to play at competitive level 8 months after injury.
