(OBQ07.183) The calcaneus is the most commonly fractured tarsal bone, representing 60 percent of all tarsal fractures in adults [ 1 ]. In the treatment of intra-articular calcaneal fractures, surgical reduction and fixation has been shown to have improved outcomes over nonoperative treatment in all of the following patient groups EXCEPT: (OBQ07.176) A calcaneal spur, or commonly known as a heel spur, occurs when a bony outgrowth forms on the heel bone. Type III--Three-part fracture of the posterior facet. Calcaneal fractures are better if the patient is a female. type A fractures: the anterior process of the calcaneus is fractured.

Key Points: Fractures of the pediatric calcaneus are rare injuries and are frequently missed. 60-75% of injuries are intra-articular fractures, no significant increase in infection rates, peak incidence in women in seventh decade of life, violent contaction of the triceps surae with forced dorsiflexion, strong concentric contaction of the triceps surae with knee in full extension, intrinsic tightness of the gastrocnemius and achilles tendon, peripheral neuropathy leading to decreased pain sensation and proprioception resulting in recurrent microtrauma, increased physical activity in the setting of relative energy deficiency, primary fracture line results from oblique shear and leads to the following, includes the sustentaculum tali and is stabilized by strong ligamentous and capsular attachments, dictate whether there is joint depression or tongue-type fracture, strong contraction of gastrocnemius-soleus with concomitant avulsion at its insertion site on calcaneus, more common in osteopenic/osteoporotic bone, inversion and plantar flexion of the foot cause avulsion of the bifurcate ligament, superolateral fragment contains the articular facets, superior articular surface contains three facets that articulate with the talus, the flexor hallucis longus tendon is medial to the posterior facet and inferior to the medial facet and can be injured with errant drills/screws that are too long, between the middle and posterior facets lies the, projects medially and supports the neck of talus, connects the dorsal aspect of the anterior process to the cuboid and navicular, calcaneal tuberosity (Achilles tendon avulsion), the primary fracture line runs obliquely through the posterior facet forming two fragments, the secondary fracture line runs in one of two planes, the

bone, cannulated compression screws are placed from the posterio calcaneal tuberosity to the talar dome, lateral fixation plate applied to hold reduction, increased risk in smokers, diabetics, and open injuries, may consider nonoperative treatment in these patients, tongue type fractures at high risk (>20%) for posterior skin necrosis, should be splinted in 30 degrees of planarflexion to relieve soft tissue tension, keep all hardware away from the corner of the incision, delayed wound healing is the most common complication, can be addressed with ankle bracing (gauntlet type), NSAIDs, injections, and physical therapy, may require bone block subtalar arthrodesis to address loss of calcaneal height, important when there are symptoms of anterior ankle impingement, Lateral impingement

Fractures of the anterior process of the calcaneus occur following an acute injury to the foot. 0. Radiographs show significant loss of calcaneal height and an incongruous subtalar joint. The anterior process of the calcaneus is a prominence on the heel bone (calcaneus) that is located in front and to the outside of the ankle (Figure 1). A 42-year-old male sustains the injury seen in figure A. Tarsal fractures account for 2% of all fractures. Disclaimer, National Library of Medicine Medially, it articulates with the navicular nad lateral cuneiform. Calcaneal fractures can be divided broadly into two types depending on whether there is articular involvement of the subtalar joint 2,7,8: The calcaneus is also a common site of stress fractures, occurring in the posterosuperior aspect.
