The authors report a successful surgical therapy of 4 patients with closed fracture-dislocation of the astragalar bone. It is believed that an operative reposition with subsequent screw osteosynthesis (metallic or with a heterobone) is the most rational and atraumatic method of treatment in this category of patients. According to their findings the operative procedure should be performed as early as possible to avoid adverse complications not infrequently associated with this lesion (necrosis of skin covers of the foot, aseptic necrosis of the astragalar bone).
