Abstract des Autors
Easily mistaken for an ankle fracture during the initial examination, medial subtalar dislocation - also known as basketball foot - requires plaster immobilization for no more than 3 weeks. To extend immobilization beyond this time can lead to reduced range of motion in the subtalar joint, making it difficult for the athlete to resume sports activities. Encouraging toe motion while the patient is still in the cast prevents tendon adhesions. In this case report, the author discusses the importance of short-term immobilization and early rehabilitation for a 21-year-old basketball player recovering from medial subtalar dislocation.
