Isolated fracture of the lateral process of the talus in a high-speed road traffic accident JO - BMJ case reports A1 - Ng, Evangeline Shimei A1 - O'Neill, Barry James A1 - Cunningham, Laurence Patrick A1 - Quinlan, John Francis SP - 2013 EP - 200357 VL - 2013 IS - N2 - We present a 23-year-old man who sustained an isolated fracture of the lateral process of the talus (LPT) in a head-on vehicle collision at a combined speed of 200 km/h. The driver of the other vehicle sustained fatal injuries at the scene. The LPT was openly reduced and fixed with successful outcome at 3 months. This case is unusual in the method of injury, in particular in relation to the isolated relatively minor injury sustained.
