Features of calcaneal fractures

Calcaneal fractures are the most common tarsal fractures, accounting for approximately 2% of all fractures. Improper treatment of calcaneal fractures can cause malunion of calcaneal fractures, resulting in changes such as heel widening, height reduction, flat foot deformity, and varus or valgus feet. Therefore, restoring the normal biomechanical anatomy and function of the hindfoot has become one of the main goals of the treatment of calcaneal fractures.

The most common tarsal fractures, accounting for 60% of tarsal fractures, accounting for 2% of systemic fractures, about 75% of intra-articular fractures, 20% to 45% associated with calcaneocuboid joint injury.

Due to the complex anatomical structure of the calcaneus and surrounding areas, the quality of local soft tissue coverage is poor, and there are many sequelae and poor prognosis.

The treatment plan is highly individualized, and the methods are not uniform.
