Dorsomedial fracture dislocation of the tarsal navicular: A rare orthopaedic injury.

Dorsomedial fracture dislocations of the tarsal navicular are extremely rare injuries which commonly occur secondary to high energy, complex multidirectional forces involving an abduction force to a pronated and plantar-flexed foot. A 44-year-old female presented in the emergency room following a motor vehicle accident with a dorsomedial fracture dislocation of her navicular. Management required acute fusion of the talonavicular joint. There are few reports in the literature discussing the treating, outcomes, and complications of these injuries. Our report represents one method of treating these rare injuries with a favorable outcome.
