The calcaneus is the most frequently fractured
tarsal bone, accounting for 60% of all tarsal
injuries, and represents 2% of all fractures and
75% of calcaneal fractures are intra_articular.
Are bilateral in 5-9% of patients .
11.
Incidence of associated injuries such as
compression fractures of the lumbar
and/or dorsal spine is 10% .
These fractures are complicated by a
compartment syndrome in 10% of cases.

plate in treating displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures .

15. ANATOMY OF THE CALCANEUS
1-BONY ANATOMY:
The calcaneus is the largest of the tarsal
bones It is irregularly cuboidal in form, having
its long axis directed forward and lateralward
19.
On the superior aspect are three articular
surfaces: the posterior, middle, and anterior
facets. The posterior is the largest and is
convex. The middle one, which is slightly
concave, is situated on the sustentaculum tali.
The anterior facet, also slightly concave.
22. BÖHLER'S ANGLE
formed by drawing two lines. The first is
drawn from the highest point on the anterior
process to the highest point on the posterior
facet. The second line is tangential to the
superior edge of the tuberosity. The normal
value of Böhler's angle is 25 to 40°.
24.
is the angle formed by the intersection of a
line drawn along the dorsal aspect of the
anterior process of the calcaneus and a line
drawn along the dorsal slope of the posterior
facet. The normal value of Gissane's angle is
120 to 145°.
25.
26.
Lateral radiograph of the normal calcaneus.
Lateral radiograph of the calcaneus shows
compression (light blue arrows) and traction
(yellow arrows) trabeculae,with the neutral
triangle (brown triangle) in between with
sparse trabeculae. The thickened cortical or
thalamic portion of the bone supporting the
articular facets is shown (T).

TALOCALCANEONAVICULAR JOINT
It is regarded as two joints, i.e. the anterior part of the
'subtalar' joint and the talonavicular joint.
CALCANEOCUBOID JOINT
at the same level as the talonavicular joint and,
together, they represent the transverse tarsal joint.

32. BIOMECHANICS
The calcaneus contributes to :
The posterior aspect of the longitudinal arch.
Supporting the talus.
Sharing in weight bearing.
Transmitting body weight to the ground and
creates a strong lever for the muscles of the
calf.

marked 1, runs from
the critical angle of
Gissane to the medial
wall,

the
calcaneus
in
the
coronal
plane.
An
additional fracture line
is often seen extending
from
the
anterior
process
to
the
tuberosity
38.
The shear fracture splits the calcaneus into
the anteromedial (or sustentacular) and
posterolateral (or tuberosity) fragments. The
compression fracture runs in the coronal
plane, with the anterior limb running through
the critical angle of Gissane and the
posterior limb extending either horizontally
toward the tuberosity as a tongue type
fracture (red line) or more vertically, just
posterior to the posterior facet, as a joint
depression type fracture (blue line).
51. TREATMENT
Calcaneus fractures are among the most difficult
fractures to operatively reduce and internally fix.
Methods:
Closed reduction, with elevation of the foot,
compression dressing, and early motion.
Percutaneous reduction techniques such as EssexLopresti .
Open reduction and internal fixation as popularized
by Palmer et tal .
Primary arthrodesis.

53. This prospective study was carried
out from December 2008 to July 2010 in
emergency section of our Department of
Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology in
Minia University Hospital . We treated 30
patients with displaced intra articular
calcaneal fractures with anatomical plate
54. Age and sex:
The age of the patients ranged between 22 and
40 years with the mean age 31 year , there were
18 cases below 31 years (60%) and 12 cases
above 31 years (40%) . There were 22 males
(73%) and 8 females (27%) .
Affected Side:
The left side was affected in 10 patients (33%),
while the right was affected in 14 patients (47%)
and it was bilateral in 5 patients (20%)
55. Mechanisms of Injury
25 cases were due to fall from hieght (83%)
and 5 cases were due to motor vechile
accident (17%)
Classification systems:
According to Essex-Lopresti there were 20
cases with joint depression type and 10 cases
with tongue type .
According to Sander’s 18 (60%)
type-II
fracture 8 cases (26%) were type III fractures
and 4 (14%) cases were type IV fracture .

reduce
the potential for peroneal tendon irritation and
facilitates soft-tissue closure .
Reduced profile helps to simplifiy intraoperative
contouring
Calcaneal Plate’s Y-arm provides structural support
for joint depression fractures

K-wire holes allow for provisional stabilization and
verification of reduction
Central hole permits increased screw angulation to

As regard pre operative assessment of our
patients we agree with Leung et al.that
standard lateral, axial, and internal oblique
radiographs
are
not
adequate
for
the
assessment of the subtalar joint and CT is
needed for almost all fractures to detect the
extent and type of the fracture .
88.
As regard the surgical approach used in our
study is the extended lateral approach in all
cases
popularized
by
Benirschke
and
Sangeorzan . The merits of this approach
involve the inclusion of the peroneal tendon
and sural nerve with the flap, which helps to
minimize the risk of injury to these structures.
89. The clinical outcome for 10 (33%) of the 30
feet was excellent and 15 (50%) was good .
3 feet (10%) had a fair result, and 2 were
considered to have had poor ; of these one
feet, needed a subtalar arthrodesis
91. Benirschke and Sangeorzan 2004
(25 cases)
The bony results were five excellent (17.8%),
nine good (50.0%), two fair (11.1%), and two
poor (11.1%). .
The functional results were excellent in
(21.9%) patients, good in
(43.7%), fair in
(12.5%), and poor in (21.9%).
92.
(Zhongguo Xiu Fu 2008 reported on ( 50
cases)
The results were excellent and good in (8
%) , fair in (5%) and poor in (7%).
93.
The results of Christoph are better than our
results this is due to the fact that some of
our patients were not compliant during the
follow up period either by missing their follow
up appointments frequently or by starting
weight bearing too early before we advise
them to do so.

The focus of current treatment is on operative methods,
with the goal of restoring not only articular congruency
but also the shape and alignment of the calcaneus and
this can be easily achieved by using the anatomical plate.
A lateral approach with use of an extensile incision
appears to be associated with the fewest soft-tissue
complications .
