Current literature of definition, classification and outcomes of fractures of talar body remains controversial. Our primary purpose is to present an unusual combination of fractures of talar body with pantalar involvement / dislocation / extension as a basis for modification of Müller AO / OTA Classification. We include four consecutive patients, who sustained talar body fractures with pantalar subluxation/dislocation /extension. These unusual injury patterns lead us to reconsider Müller AO / OTA Classification in the light of another widely used talar fracture classification, Hawkins Classification of fractures of neck of talus and subsequent modification by Canale and Kelly.Background
