Talus Fracture of the Medial Tubercle of the Posterior Process: Interposition of the Flexor Hallucis Longus Tendon

Talus fracture of the medial tubercle of the posterior process is rare. This type of fracture can be easily missed, because it is difficult to identify on plain radiographs of the ankle. Oblique radiographs with external rotation, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the ankle are useful for making an accurate diagnosis
