Description

Navicular and Jones fractures are among the most common and clinically challenging foot injuries encountered in elite athletes. Appropriate diagnosis, treatment selection, and return-to-play decision-making are critical to optimizing outcomes while minimizing the risk of delayed union, nonunion, and reinjury. In this webinar, an internationally recognized faculty panel will review contemporary approaches to the management of navicular fractures and Jones fractures in high-performance athletes. Through expert presentations and case-based discussions, participants will explore treatment algorithms, surgical considerations, rehabilitation strategies, and real-world clinical scenarios that influence athlete recovery and return to competition.

Learning Objectives

• Identify key clinical and imaging findings associated with navicular fractures and Jones fractures in elite athletes.
• Assess current treatment strategies and surgical techniques used to optimize healing and athletic performance following navicular and Jones fractures.
• Develop patient-specific management and return-to-sport plans based on fracture characteristics, athlete demands, and case-based clinical scenarios.
