Patient-Reported Outcomes After Lateral Process Talus Fracture
Conclusions:
Most patients with lateral process talus fracture achieve excellent outcome as measured by the PROMIS PF and FAAM at medium-term follow-up. Displaced fractures are likely best managed with early surgical treatment. Patients treated with early surgery have significantly fewer subtalar fusions as compared to patients with nonoperative treatment.
Level of Evidence:
