“…[1][2][3] Controversy remains with respect to whether displaced intra-articular calcaneal fracture ought to be treated operatively or non-operatively. [4][5][6][7][8][9] Historically, displaced intraarticular fracture and calcaneal fractures were treated conservatively, as predictable operative reduction and fixation were not possible. 7,8,11 Operative treatment became more popular, as fracture care improved.…”

Locking calcaneal plate a b s t r a c t Background: Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is the treatment of choice for displaced intra-articular calcaneal fracture at many orthopaedic trauma centres. In this prospective study, we evaluated the functional outcome and complications of locking compressive calcaneum plate for displaced intra-articular fracture calcaneum.Methods: Between October 2011 and March 2012, 30 patients with displaced intra-articular fracture calcaneum attending the outdoor and emergency of our institute were included in the study. All the included patients were operated using standard lateral approach and followed up to 1 year.Results: Of 30 patients, 14 (48%) patients were Sander's type II, 10 (33%) were type III, and 6 (20%) were type IV. All the patients were evaluated post-operatively. Articular surface of posterior facet of calcaneum and crucial angle of Gissane was maintained in all patients. Four patients had post-operative Boehler's angle <208 and 26 patients had between 218 and 408. All the patients having post-operative Boehler's angle <208 were type IV as compared to types II and III (statistically significant). Ninety-six percentage of patients having post-operative Boehler's angle 21-408 were more satisfied at 1 year as compared to 25% of patients having post-operative Boehler's angle <208 (statistically significant). Complications were present in 6 (20%) patients.Conclusion: ORIF with locking compressive plate in displaced intra-articular fracture calcaneum gives good outcome. Results are more favourable in less comminuted as compared to more comminuted. Maintenance of Boehler's angle is also necessary for satisfactory results along with maintenance of articular congruence of posterior facet of calcaneum and crucial angle of Gissane.

All patients were evaluated according to a modified foot score. A radiological assessment was used in which linear and angular variables were measured including the fibulocalcaneal abutment, the height of the heel and fat pad, the angle of the arch and the lateral talocalcaneal and the lateral talar declination angles.The technique used restores the normal relationship between the hindfoot and midfoot and corrects the height of the heel. This leads to better biomechanical balance of the neighbouring joints and gives a favourable clinical outcome.The modified foot score showed a good or excellent result in 51% of the feet. Residual complaints were mostly due to problems with the soft tissues. Subjectively, an excellent or good score was achieved in 78% of the cases.After statistical analysis, except for the height of the heel and the degenerative changes in the calcaneocuboid joint, no significant difference was found in the measured variables between the operated and the contralateral side.
