Functional and Radiological Outcome of a Case of Intra Articular Calcaneum Fracture Treated with Open Reduction and Internal Fixation with Plating
Dr. S. Surya, Dr. Navaneetha Krishnan R, Dr. Vijay Narasimman Reddy
Abstract: Calcaneus is one of the most commonly fractured tarsal bones. The use of computed tomography (CT) has enabled more accurate fracture configuration and classification of fractures. The outcomes of operative versus nonoperative treatment of these fractures have been extensively debated with variable results. Significant complications following intra - articular fractures have been reported in the literature despite management by experienced surgeons. This article will discuss the treatment of calcaneus fractures by open reduction and internal fixation in a prone position with a calcaneal traction pin, and assess the outcomes following this novel technique.
Keywords: calcaneus fractures, tarsal bone fracture, CT scan, operative treatment, open reduction fixation
