Popis: | Objective This study was performed to analyze the outcomes of calcaneal fractures using a minimally invasive internal fixation method with a thin plate and bone grafting. Methods This retrospective analysis included 21 patients treated using our minimally invasive approach. The outcome measures were the change in the Bohler and Gissane angles and the calcaneus width after fixation. The clinical outcomes were evaluated by the Maryland foot scoring system and assessment of soft tissue complications. Results The follow-up time was 12 to 18 months. The Bohler angle, Gissane angle, and width of the calcaneus were significantly different between the preoperative and postoperative periods. The rate of excellent and good outcomes was 85.7% according to the Maryland foot scoring system. The incidence of soft tissue complications was 14.3%. Conclusion Treatment of calcaneal fractures using a minimally invasive internal fixation method with a plate and bone grafting provides good to excellent clinical outcomes with few soft tissue complications. |
