Abstract
We report a case of open enucleation of the talus, surgically treated conservatively. Enucleation or triple dislocation of the talus is a rare and serious traumatic injury. The study reports case of a 55 years old, was the victim of an attack by a stone with a direct point of impact on the right ankle while the foot was fixed, resulting in total functional impotence and severe pain. Enucleation of the talus is a rare lesion, rarely described in the literature. The functional prognosis of the ankle is compromised by the risk of osteonecrosis.
