Closed pantalar dislocation with associated Lisfranc's injury is a very rare injury. We report a rare case of such injury. Our patient had fall from height and presented with closed pantalar dislocation with Lisfranc's injury of the left foot and other multiple injuries. He was immediately operated and dislocation was reduced and was stabilised with multiple Kirschner wires. At the end of 1 year follow up, he had an AOFAS score of 78 and had painless ankle movements. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reported with such a rare combination of injury.

Closed pantalar dislocations are a rare variant of an uncommon injury. Pantalar dislocations are typically caused by high-energy trauma resulting in an open injury with associated fracture of the articulating bones. Given its obscurity, the literature on closed pantalar dislocations is scarce, and no standard treatment protocol has been accepted.

Talar body fracture associated with pan-talar (tibiotalar, talocalcaneal, talonavicular) dislocation is a rare condition. Timely intervention with anatomical reduction will lead to better healing of the fracture. It will result in articular congruity of the talus and less chance of secondary arthritis.

Talus fractures are relatively uncommon; however, the sequelae of talus fractures can cause significant morbidity. Although avascular necrosis has been a consistently reported complication, the reported rates of subsequent arthrodesis have varied widely. The purpose of the present study was to report the complications in a large patient sample of operatively treated talus fractures and to describe the survivorship of open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of the talus.
