The results of operative treatment of two groups of patients with articular fractures of the calcaneus were evaluated. Twenty-three cases were treated surgically using a standard reconstruction procedure. In the second group of 19 patients a large bone distractor was used; it held the soft tissue flap retracted, while aiding in articular and tuberosity fragment reduction and increasing visualisation by distraction of the posterior talocalcaneal joint. After a year, the anatomical and functional results, together with the operative time, were evaluated. All fractures healed with good or very good anatomical results. All cases, except those with complications (n=3), achieved good (n=28) or very good (n = 11) functional scoring. The distractor group had significantly shorter operative times, and less manpower was needed during surgery. We conclude that the large bone distractor is a useful tool in open reconstruction of articular calcaneal fractures.

“…Toutefois, la plupart des auteurs sont d'accord pour affirmer que le traitement orthopédique des fractures dépla-cées donne un mauvais résultat [12][13][14]. Aminian et al [4] préconisent le traitement chirurgical pour les fractures déplacées par réduction à foyer ouvert et fixation interne (voie d'abord latérale mini-invasive) après dissipation du gonflement du pied et de la cheville.…”

Fracture ipsilatérale du talus et du calcanéus

et al. 2011

La fracture concomitante du talus et du calcanéus est une association très rare, c'est une lésion grave dont la compression axiale est le principal mécanisme. Seuls l'abord chirurgical, la réduction ouverte anatomique et la fixation interne peuvent aboutir à des résultats cliniques favorables. Nous rapportons un cas de fracture homolatérale du talus et du calcanéus chez un jeune homme de 30 ans traité par ostéosynthèse au moyen d'une plaque au niveau calcanéen et par vissage du talus avec un résultat clinique satisfaisant. Pour citer cette revue : Méd. Chir. Pied 27 (2011). Mots clés Talus · Calcanéus · Cheville · Fracture · IpsilatéraleAbstract The concomitant fracture of the talus and the calcaneus is a very rare combination, and it is a serious injury; it is caused by axial compression. Only surgical treatment with open anatomic reduction and internal fixation can lead to favorable clinical results. We report a case of ipsilateral fracture of talus and calcaneus in a 30-year-old man treated surgically by the fixation of a plate in the calcaneus and a screw in the talus, with a satisfactory clinical outcome. To cite this journal: Méd. Chir. Pied 27 (2011).

“…[12][13][14] However, most authors agree that nonoperative treatment of displaced fractures yields poor results and hence open reduction should be done in such cases. [15][16][17] However, in severely comminuted fractures, consideration may be given to primary subtalar fusion to eliminate the need for secondary surgery as these fractures are universally associated with subsequent subtalar arthritis.…”

Ipsilateral Type IV Closed Talus and Calcaneal Fractures: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Talar and calcaneal fractures are commonly associated with other musculoskeletal injuries and systemic trauma. Both injuries in isolation have a guarded clinical outcome, and are associated with numerous complications whether treated operatively or nonoperatively. Few studies, however, have reported cases with ipsilateral closed talus and calcaneal fractures. We report one such rare case presenting with closed ipsilateral type IV talar neck fracture and type IV communited intra-articular calcaneal fracture as a result of high energy trauma. Unfortunately the patient had a concurrent vascular injury at the proximal tibia level which ultimately necessitated amputation. Through our report we highlight the universally poor results in such cases and discuss the management options if encountered with such a rare pattern of injury.
