Ankle injuries frequently occur in dancers. Among these injuries, only a few cases of talar subluxation have been reported in the literature. In our series, we diagnosed and treated 25 subtalar subluxations over a 1-year period in the Ballet Béjart Lausanne company. ⋯ Continuous taping, which locks the talonavicular joint in the anterior direction, was recommended for 6 weeks. Dancing could be resumed in a swimming pool after 2 weeks, and on the ground after 3 to 4 weeks. We found that subluxation could recur, and that it could eventually become chronic.
