Talar neck non-union is a rare complication of talar neck fractures. No guidelines are currently available for the proper management of this complication; thus, it can be hard for orthopaedic surgeons to successfully treat. Here we are reporting a case of talar neck non-union occurring in a 22-year-old male patient after a road traffic accident and presented to our institution 10 months after the initial injury. The non-union was managed surgically with an open reduction and internal fixation with the use of a synthetic bone graft to fill the defects. The patient regained full function and remained without complications after 7 years of follow up.
距骨颈骨不连是距骨颈骨折的一种罕见并发症。目前尚无针对该并发症合理处理的指南；因此，骨科医生成功治疗可能会很困难。在此，我们报告一例22岁男性患者在道路交通事故后发生距骨颈骨不连，初次受伤10个月后就诊于我院。通过切开复位、内固定并使用人工骨移植填充缺损对骨不连进行了手术治疗。经过7年随访，患者恢复了全部功能且未出现并发症。
