- Abstract
The article describes the case of a 17-year-old woman who suffered from pure ankle dislocation during an amateur netball game. A closed, deformed right ankle was revealed by examination and X-ray revealed a pure posteromedial dislocation of her right tibiotalar joint with no malleolar fractures or syndesmotic diastasis. The patient was successfully treated with controlled ankle motion orthosis.
