Abstract
- Background The present study evaluated the results obtained from the anatomical lateral frame plate treatment of displaced intraarticular calcaneus fractures. Methods Overall, 14 displaced intraarticular fractures of 13 patients (3 females, 10 males; Mean age, 37.5 years) were included in the present study. Surgery was performed using widened lateral approach and supported by auto grafts following joint line reduction in all patients. They were then fixated by anatomical lateral frame plate. All the joints were stabilized by casting after the operation. All patients were prescribed controlled and full weight bearing at 6-8th and 12th weeks, respectively. Results Mean follow-up of patients was 28 months. The fractures were classified according to Sanders system. Clinical scoring of the patients was performed according to American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society, Creighton-Nebraska, and Maryland systems. According to these systems, the mean scores of the patients were 83.7, 75.7, and 88.5 respectively. Conclusion In the present study, we have defined the results of anatomical lateral frame plate treatment in patients with displaced intraarticular calcaneus fractures. We have obtained clinically and radiologically satisfactory results with the anatomical compatibility of plate to the lateral surface of the calcaneus.
