Intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus.
A method of reducing deformity of displaced, intra-articular fractures of the calcaneum is described, together with a programme of management aimed at restoring a painless and mobile foot. The clinical and radiographic results are presented in 41 patients treated over a 10-year-period, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. The complications, none of which were serious, are described. The results...
متن کاملTreatment of displaced intra-articular calcaneus fractures: a current concepts review
Displaced Intra-Articular Calcaneus fractures (DIACFs) represent a source of tremendous disability to the patient, economic burden to the society and a treatment challenge to the average orthopaedic surgeon. To date, no single approach is universally applicable to all calcaneus fractures. Despite a plethora of published meta-analyses and recent randomized controlled trials, the literature is st...
متن کاملPediatric and Adolescent Intra-Articular Fractures of the Calcaneus
Calcaneal fractures in childhood are very rare, whereas particularly intra-articular displaced fractures are not typical in skeletally immature children. Various techniques of osteosynthesis have been described. This study aimed to determine clinical and radiological outcome after surgical treatment of intraarticular calcaneal fractures. Fourteen intraarticular fractures of the calcaneus were i...
متن کاملExternal fixation for displaced intra-articular fractures of the calcaneum.
A minimally-invasive procedure using percutaneous reduction and external fixation can be carried out for Sanders' type II, III and IV fractures of the os calcis. We have treated 54 consecutive closed displaced fractures of the calcaneum involving the articular surface in 52 patients with the Orthofix Calcaneal Mini-Fixator. Patients were followed up for a mean of 49 months (27 to 94) and assess...
متن کاملModified Essex-Lopresti / Westheus reduction for displaced intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus. Description of surgical technique and early outcomes.
We describe a modification of the classical Essex-Lopresti manoeuvre for the indirect reduction and stabilisation of displaced intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus. The radiological and functional results achieved using this technique in 15 patients is presented. Ten tongue-shaped and 8 joint depression type fractures were treated by the new method, incorporating the use of an additional ...
