Assessment of efficiency of open reduction and percutaneous fixation in treating options for calcaneal fractures

Introduction: Calcaneal fractures are most commonest of all tarsal bone fractures, accounting for 2% with displaced intra-articular 60% to 75% the cases. After eccentric axial loading talus on calcaneus, occur. Displaced calcaneal (DIACFs) difficult treat and contentious. The treatment choice is yet unknown. These days those treating surgically, here goal this research was examine functional outcomes treated open reduction versus percutaneous fixation. Aim Objectives: To compare radiological outcome analyse restoration Bohler’s, Gissane angles, height, articular reconstruction post operative complication. Materials Methods: This retrospective prospective study included patients age between 18-60 years. A sample 20 Intraarticular displaced, comminuted were selected, evaluated operated in Rajah Muthiah Medical College Hospital, Chidambaram July 2019 October 2021. All had surgery, which completed use anatomical plates, k wires, or CC screws. Conclusion: In op fixations having serious complication rates like subtalar arthritis, chronic heal pain joint stiffness still existing when comparable plating, hence internal fixation locking plate appropriate timing should be considered an favourable option compared fixations.
