Abstract

External subtalar dislocation is a rare and severe orthopedic injury, accounting for only 1% of all dislocations and 17% of subtalar dislocations. It results from forced eversion trauma and requires early diagnosis and management to prevent complications. We report a rare case of left external subtalar dislocation successfully managed in our department.
