Stress fracture of the posterior talar process in a female long-distance runner treated by osteosynthesis with screw fixation via two-portal hindfoot endoscopy: a case report.

Abstract

Stress fracture of the lateral tubercle of the posterior talar process in runners is extremely rare. Here, we describe a case of a female long-distance runner who sustained a stress fracture of the lateral tubercle of the posterior talar process. Osteosynthesis with screw fixation via two-portal hindfoot endoscopy achieved a good surgical outcome with a less invasive procedure.
