Case: A 70-year-old man sustained a traumatic injury to his right foot after falling from a 3-foot height. Imaging demonstrated a cuboid fracture with inferomedial dislocation and associated nondisplaced midfoot fractures. Treatment consisted of closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (CRPP) using Kirschner wire fixation. His postoperative recovery was uneventful with full return to activities.
Conclusion: Cuboid fracture-dislocations are exceedingly rare, and subsequently, there is a paucity of treatment recommendations in the literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported successful closed reduction with percutaneous pinning for a cuboid fracture with associated dislocation. CRPP is a potential treatment option for this injury.
