Sumario:Combined fractures of the talus and adjacent bones are rare. We present a case with a fracture of the talus body concurrently with a tibial shaft fracture. Open reduction and internal fixation were applied in the treatment of talus fracture. The tibial shaft fracture was treated with closed reduction and intramedullary nails. At 1-year follow-up, no complication occurred and the patient returned to work before the injury.
