An unusual variety of simultaneous fracture dislocation pattern: medial swivel dislocation of talonavicular joint with displaced fractures of the fourth and fifth metatarsals.

In published studies, a very rare, special type of Chopart dislocation termed a swivel dislocation has been reported. This injury is characterized by dislocation of the talonavicular joint, but the calcaneocuboid joint remains intact. The foot creates a typical rotational movement without inversion or eversion. The axis of rotation is the interosseous talocalcaneal ligament, which remains intact. We report the case of an 18-year-old male who had experienced a medial swivel dislocation of the talonavicular joint associated with displaced fractures of the fourth and fifth metatarsals. The occurrence, features, and method of treatment of this rare injury are presented.
