Background and aim of the work: The calcaneus, the more lower bone of the body, has the
task of supporting the axial load from the weight of the body. Calcaneal fractures represent …

Introduction: Calcaneus is one of the most commonly fractured tarsal bones. The use of
computed tomography (CT) has enabled more accurate fracture configuration and …

Introduction Surgical treatment of displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures using a
standard extended lateral approach for plate fixation is frequently associated with …

Abstract We investigated whether 3-dimensional (3D) printed models can decrease
operation time and improve the quality of reduction for calcaneal fractures. The study …

Purpose. It is currently still common practice to obtain conventional radiographs in the follow-
up of surgically treated displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures at regular intervals …

Objective: To assess the equatorial talar line (ETL) as a sensitive radiographic parameter to
predict Sanders type III and IV fractures and the presence of lateral wall blowout. Methods …

Abstract Treatment of comminuted intraarticular calcaneal fractures remains controversial
and challenging. The aim of this study was to investigate the biomechanical performance of …

Background: The extensile lateral approach (EL) has been associated with increased
wound complications such as apical necrosis which may be due partially from violation of …

Plantar Medial Avulsion Fracture of the Calcaneus With Acute Tarsal Tunnel: Case Report
and Technique Tip - Kempland C. Walley, William L. Johns, J. Benjamin Jackson, Tyler A …

Background: Intra-articular calcaneus fractures result in heel shortening, widening, varus
malalignment, and loss of height. Little has been written regarding superior displacement of …
