Open reduction and internal fixation of calcaneus fractures through a sinus tarsi approach
Introduction: The wound complication rate for open reduction and internal fixation of calcaneus fractures through the extensile approach is 30%. Due to this high rate of wound complications, many surgeons prefer conservative management. If post-traumatic arthritis develops, the clinical results of a subtalar fusion are better if the posterior facet is reduced and the shape of the calcaneus rest...
متن کاملMinimally invasive (sinus tarsi) approach for calcaneal fractures
BACKGROUND According to the anatomic characteristics of the calcaneus and the sinus tarsi approach, we designed a combined plate. The goal of this study was to retrospectively assess the functional outcomes and complications of treatment with our self-designed plate. METHODS From March 2014 to October 2015, 18 patients with closed calcaneal fractures (14 Sanders type II and 4 type III) were t...
متن کاملManagement of intraarticular calcaneal fractures by minimally invasive sinus tarsi approach-early results.
ABSTRACT The operative treatment of displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures has been a controversial topic. Soft tissue conditions and concomitant disease must be considered in these patients. The minimally invasive sinus tarsi approach is a valid therapeutic solution that guarantees stability, anatomic reduction of the fracture and soft tissue preservation. Twenty-five closed calcaneal fr...
متن کاملLess wound complications of a sinus tarsi approach compared to an extended lateral approach for the treatment of displaced intraarticular calcaneal fracture
BACKGROUND We conducted a prospective randomized clinical trial to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of the sinus tarsi and extended lateral approaches for the surgical treatment of displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures. METHODS Between January 2009 and January 2014, patients with displaced intraarticular calcaneal fracture were randomly assigned to receive surgical treatm...
متن کاملFractures of the calcaneus
Objectives 1. Describe the anatomy of the calcaneus; including the articular facets and their orientation, the sustentaculum tali, and the apophysis 2. Describe the ossification of the calcaneus, and differences between the immature and adult calcaneus 3. Describe a classification system of calcaneal fractures useful for assessing such fractures in the immature foot 4. Discuss the imaging of a ...
