Fracture Talus A talus fracture is a break
Fracture Talus: A talus fracture is a break in one of the bones that forms the ankle. This type of fracture often occurs during a highenergy event, such as a car collision or a high-velocity fall. Because the talus is important for ankle movement, a fracture often results in significant loss of motion and function. In addition, a talus fracture that does not heal properly can lead to serious complications, including chronic pain. For this reason, many talus fractures require surgery.
