The Talus bone is the highest bone in
your ankle and connects to your leg’s Tibia and Fibula bones. The Talus
bone is vital when it comes to movement and balance. The sites where the
top of the Talus bone connects to the Tibia and Fibula bone are
referred to as the Talar Dome.
The top of the Talus bone is
covered in a rubbery substance called cartilage. This protects the bones
from scraping together and causing pain. The cartilage also makes sure
your ankle joint moves smoothly.
Complications arise when the
force of a blow damages the bone under the cartilage. As time passes the
injured bone may collapse under the cartilage and over time can detach,
float away, and become stuck in the ankle joint.
