Abstract

Treatment of fractures of the talus is quite problematic. In this study, treatment of rarely seen displaced talus fractures by various techniques is discussed. During the period of July 1998-September 2002, open reduction and internal fixation was performed for the 12 talus fractures of 11 patients. Ten were male and one is female, and the mean age was 30 (18-50). Falling from high was the cause of fracture in 8 patients while traffic accidents was the cause for the other 3. There are talar neck fractures in 5 cases, talar body fractures in 6 cases and both the neck and body fractures in one case. Eight of the patients were operated in 24 hours following the trauma. Posteroanterior fixation was made in 2 cases while anteroposterior fixation was made in 4 cases having talar neck fractures. Anteromedial approach was preferred in whole talar body fractures. Postoperatively cast immobilization was applied to whole patients for 4-8 weeks. Full weight-bearing was allowed at 14 (12-20) weeks. The mean follow-up time was 24 (6-51) months. Seven patients were painless, but 3 have moderate and 2 have severe pain. There was no healing problem except one case. Sudeck atrofia was seen in 2 patients, subtalar arthritis in 3 and tibiotalar arthritis in 2 patients. Only one patient has avascular necrosis (AVN). Satisfactory results can be obtained by fixation of talar neck fractures with screws anteroposteriorly or posteroanteriorly, and fixation the talar body fractures with screws or Kirschner wires following the reconstruction of the joint surface immediately.

Özet

Talus kırıklarının tedavisi oldukça sorunludur. Bu çalışmada çok sık görülmeyen deplase talus kırıklarının değişik cerrahi yaklaşımlarla tedavileri tartışılmıştır. Temmuz 1998-Eylül 2002 yıllan arasında 11 hastanın 12 talus kırığına açık redüksiyon ve internal fiksasyon uygulanmıştır. Hastaların 10'u erkek, 1 'i bayan olup ortalama yaşlan 30 (18-50) idi. Sekizi yüksekten düşme, 3'ü trafik kazası neticesinde olmuştu. Beşi talus boyun kırığı, 6'sı talus cisim kırığı olup birinde hem boyun hem de cisim kırığı vardı. Olgulann 8'i travmayı izleyen ilk 24 saat içinde öpere edildi. Talus boyun kırığı 2 olguda posteroanterior, 4 olguda anteroposterior fiksasyon yapıldı. Talus cisim kırıklarının tamamında anteromedial yaklaşım tercih edildi. Ameliyat sonrası tüm olgularda 4-8 hafta süre ile alçı immobilizasyonu uygulandı. Tam yük vermeye ortalama 14 (12-20) haftada izin verildi. Hastalar ortalama 24 (6-51) ay izlendi. Olgulann 7'sinde ağn şikayeti yokken, 3'ünün orta düzeyde, 2'sinin de ciddi düzeyde ağnsı vardı. Olgulann biri haricinde kaynama sorunu gözlenmedi. İki hastada Sudeck atrofısi, 3 hastada subtalar, 2 hastada da tibiotalar artrit gelişti. Sadece bir olguda avasküler nekroz (AVN) görüldü. Tip II ve tip III boyun kırıklarında anterior veya posteriordan vida tespiti, cisim kırıklarında da eklem yüzeyi rekonstrüksiyonu sonrası vida ve Kirschner telleri ile tespitin erken dönemde uygulanması halinde tatmin edici sonuçlar alınmaktadır.
