The foot and ankle is the region where most of the bones and joints are located in the body. Foot and ankle fractures are more frequent and isolated dislocations are very rare. The dislocations of the tibiotalar and subtalar joints can be easily diagnosed, whereas the mid- and forefoot joint dislocations are often overlooked. Early diagnosis and obtaining a stable joint with anatomic reduction with proper treatment is essential for good functional results. The aim of this review is to focus on the incidence, mechanisms, treatment, and outcomes of isolated foot and ankle dislocations.
