Developmental mechanism and treatment of patients with the consequences of calcaneal intraarticular fractures

Abstract

24 patients (26 feet) with the consequences of calcaneal intraarticular fractures were observed. The causes of obtaining unfavorable outcomes of treatment for calcaneal intraarticular fractures have been revealed. All the patients underwent a course of complex treatment with emphasized treating vector, depending on the mechanism of pathology development. In 8 cases decompression of tarsal channels was performed, in 2 cases – correcting arthrodesis of talocalcaneal joint. Long-term results were analyzed in 17 patients (18 feet). Good results were obtained in 14 patients (15 feet), satisfactory – in 3 patients; there were no unsatisfactory results.
