Zusammenfassung:Abstract Closed pantalar dislocation with associated Lisfranc's injury is a very rare injury. We report a rare case of such injury. Our patient had fall from height and presented with closed pantalar dislocation with Lisfranc's injury of the left foot and other multiple injuries. He was immediately operated and dislocation was reduced and was stabilised with multiple Kirschner wires. At the end of 1 year follow up, he had an AOFAS score of 78 and had painless ankle movements. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reported with such a rare combination of injury.
