Extensive Osteochondroma of the Talus Presenting As Syndesmotic Joint Extension and Posterior Inferior Tibiofibular Ligament Rupture: A Reportof a Rare Case and a Review of the Literature.
Curēus 2024 March
This case report describes a rare occurrence of talar osteochondroma extending into syndesmosis, causing disruption of the interosseous membrane and the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL). This type of presentation for a talar osteochondroma is the first of its kind reported in the literature based on current knowledge. A detailed preoperative radiological assessment was crucial in planning the surgical approach and preparing for syndesmotic stabilization during the excision. The patient underwent successful and complete excision of the osteochondroma, and the syndesmosis was stabilized using a cortical screw along with anatomical repair of the PITFL. Apart from delayed wound healing, the patient exhibited good functional outcomes in terms of gait and ankle range of motion at the six-month follow-up. This case serves as a valuable reference for similar presentations in the future, emphasizing the importance of thorough preoperative assessment and appropriate treatment planning.
