Talus Fractures


Your talus bone is the bottom part of the ankle joint. It connects your foot to the two bones in your lower leg — the tibia and fibula — that make up the top part of the ankle. The talus lies just above the calcaneus or heel bone and below the tibia or shin bone. Together the talus and calcaneus are critical to your ability to walk.
A talus fracture usually results from serious trauma to the foot. Injuries that could cause a talus fracture include a fall from a great height or a car accident. A badly twisted ankle can also cause small pieces of the talus to break off.
​
If the fracture doesn’t heal properly, you could have walking problems. So many talus fractures require surgery soon after the injury occurs to prevent problems later.
