Popis:	Introduction Arthroscopic-assisted reduction and internal fixation (ARIF) is a recent concept and is increasingly used for articular fractures, due to the minimally invasive nature and high accuracy. However, there are few reports in literature about this procedure in talar fractures. Case Report The authors describe a clinical case of a 22-year-old woman with a closed right articular talar neck fracture, Hawkins type II, treated with arthroscopically ARIF. Conclusion This is a minimally invasive technique that can allow close accurate reduction and stable fixation of selected articular talar fractures. It avoids some complications of multiple and large incisions of the conventional open surgery, with good functional outcomes and patient satisfaction.
