Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the minimally invasive posterior approach for the surgical treatment of intraarticular fracture of calcaneus. Materials and Methods: From March 2006 to October 2008, we studied retrospectively 45 patients, 56 cases who were treated with minimally invasive reduction and pin fixation treatment for displaced intraarticular calcaneal fracture and were followed up for more than 1 year. The clinical results were evaluated with Creighton-Nebraska score and AOFAS score, circle draw test after 1 year. We checked simple AP, lateral, axial and Broden's view preoperatively and 1 year after surgery, and compared Bohler angle and Gissane angle. Results: By Creighton-Nebraska score, Sanders type 1 was 81, type 2 was 75, type 3 was 69, type 4 was 61. By AOFAS score, Sanders type 1 was 88, type 2 was 82, type 3 was 78, type 4 was 63. And by circle draw test, type 1 was 8.8 cm, type 2 was 8.5 cm, type 3 was 8 cm, type 4 was 6.6 cm. Preoperative Bohler angle and Gissane angle were $7.2^{\circ}$, $98^{\circ}$, and it increased to $21.2^{\circ}$, $116^{\circ}$ after postoperative 1 year. Conclusion: Minimally invasive reduction and pin fixation treatment for displaced intraarticular calcaneal fracture was considered to be an effective treatment modality.
