The case of a 44-year-old male with a traumatic pericuboid fracture-dislocation consisting of disruption of the midtarsal, tarsometatarsal and pericuboid articulations is presented. The cuboid was partially dislocated without cuboid fracture. Treatment consisted of open reduction with stable internal fixation followed by early range of motion and protected weight-bearing for 12 weeks. Functional outcome results were excellent at final follow-up.
