Abstract
Surgical approaches to the talus should allow access for fracture fixation, resection of osteophytes, treatment of osteochondral lesions, removal of painful os trigonum, and resection of hindfoot coalitions. This article describes the specific approaches to these conditions as well the structures at risk during surgery.
