Abstract
PDF - PURPOSE
To evaluate the clinical outcomes and radiographic results of operative treatment for intraarticular calcaneal fracture.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We reviewed 57 cases of intraarticular calcaneal fracture managed with operative treatment, from January, 2000 to June, 2003. The type of intraarticular calcaneal fracture is classified by the Essex-Lopresti classification and Sanders by computed tomography. The 20 cases were managed by open reduction, 37 cases by closed reduction.
RESULTS
On clinical outcomes in the case of open reduction and internal fixation, above good in 13 cases, poor in 2 cases; closed reduction, above good in 16 cases, poor in 10 cases. Averages of Bohler angle were increased from 11degrees (preoperative state) to 21degrees (last follow up) in open reduction, and from 14degrees to 20.9degrees in closed reduction.
CONCLUSION
Open reduction was considered to be one of good treatment option if the anatomical reduction and stable fixation can be obtained. -
