A talor neck fracture refers to a fracture of the neck of the talus bone in the ankle, which is crucial for foot and ankle movement. This type of injury often results from high-impact trauma, such as falls or sports accidents. It can lead to complications like avascular necrosis due to the bone's limited blood supply. Proper diagnosis and treatment are essential for recovery and to prevent long-term complications.
