Quite high prevalence of acute and chronic complications of calcaneal fractures has been reported. Acute complications include blisters, wound necrosis or infection. Late complications include subtalar arthritis, calcaneal malunion, lateral subfibular impingement, tendon problems, sural nerve complications. There are many surgical or nonsurgical treatment modalities to manage those complications. However strategic initial surgical approach with gentle soft tissue handling accompanied by comprehensive understanding about numerous complications might be the best tool to achieve pain free and functional heel after treating calcaneal fractures.

Sural nerve is a sensory nerve that innervates the lateral side of ankle and foot, and the injury of this nerve can be usually caused by surgical approch of calaneal fracture or achilles tendon injury. Entrapment neuropahty of sural nerve caused by bony fragment after calcaneal fracture is not reported, yet. Authors experienced one case that sural nerve injury due to bony fragment after calcaneal fracture and we regard that it is a rare case, so we report this case after reviewing literatures.

Bosworth fracture-dislocation of ankle is very rare, occurred by eversion and external rotation force. It is known as irreducible fracture by closed method. Also, compartment syndrome after ankle fracture are exceedingly rare. There are only a few reported cases of compartment syndrome after ankle fracture and compartment syndrome are involved commonly deep posterior compartment. We present a case in which a patient had a Bosworth fracturedislocation of the ankle underwent open reduction with internal fixation and subsequently occurred an anterior compartment syndrome of the leg.

Open reduction and internal fixation is currently considered as a gold standard of treatment in most of the intra-articular calcaneal fractures. Among various different approaches, extensile lateral approach is the most popular since it provides good exposure to the subtalar joint. However, wide skin incision followed by extensive soft tissue dissection leading to increased risk of wound breakdown is the most serious drawback. Sinus tarsi approach, a minimal invasive technique to approach the subtalar joint and reduce the intra-articular calcaneal fractures, provides good clinical outcome and less wound complications compared to the extensile lateral approach. This article introduces the surgical technique and review of the literature regarding the sinus tarsi approach.

목적: 종골 골절 후 발생하는 부정유합으로 인해 체부의 폭이 증가하면 후족부 외측의 통증이 발생한다. 외측벽 돌출을 줄이기 위해 저자들이 고안한 K-강선(Kirschner wire) 지지대의 정복 유지 효과를 임상 및 영상학적 결과로 후향적으로 평가해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2015년 1월부터 2017년 12월까지 전위된 관절 내 종골 골절 환자 중 정복 유지를 위해 K-강선 지지대를 사용한 환자 22명(A군)과 K-강선 지지대를 사용하지 않은 환자 중 A군 환자와 1:2로 짝지은 44명의 환자들(B군)을 대상으로 하였다. 모든 수술은 확장된 족근동 접근법으로 시행되었으며 유관나사와 Steinmann 핀, K-강선을 이용한 내고정술을 시행하였다. 술 후 임상적 평가로는 미국족부족관절학회의 족관절-후족부 수치와 수술 후 운동능력의 회복 정도를 비교하였다. 영상학적 결과는 Böhler 각, Gissane 각, 종골의 높이와 폭, 관절 내 함몰 정도와 종골 외측벽의 돌출 정도를 비교하였다. 또한 두 군의 환자에서 수술 후 발생한 합병증도 분석해 보았다. 결과: 임상적 결과는 두 군 간에 유의미한 차이가 없었다(p=0.924, p=0.961). 영상학적으로 Böhler 각, Gissane 각, 종골의 높이와 폭, 관절 내 함몰 정도에는 유의한 차이가 없었지만(p=0.170, p=0.441, p=0.230, p=0.266, p=0.400), 종골 외측벽의 돌출 정도는 A군이 평균 1.78 mm, B군이 4.95 mm로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p=0.017). B군에서 비복 신경 포착과 통증을 동반한 외골종의 빈도는 더 많았지만 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p=0.293, p=0.655). 결론: 임상적 평가 및 영상학적 평가의 대부분과 두 군의 합병증 비교에서 유의한 차이는 없었으나 종골 외측벽의 돌출 정도에 있어서는 A군에서 우수한 결과를 보였다. 저자들이 고안한 K-강선 지지대 수술법은 전위된 관절 내 종골 골절에서 외측벽 돌출의 정복 유지에 효과적인 수술 방법이 될 수 있을 것이다.

The ankle is a complex structure supporting the entire musculoskeletal system during standing and walking. And so the goals of operative treatment for ankle fractures are to obtain an anatomical reduction that is maintained by stable fixation, resulting in a healed fracture and recovery of normal function. The 64 patients who had ankle fractures were treated by arthroscopic reduction(20 cases) and open reduction (43 cases) in Konkuk university hospital from February 1991 to October 1997 and the results were analyzed in clinical and radiological aspects. The following results were obtained. According to the criteria of Meyer, arthroscopic assisted reduction group had good or excellent results in 18 cases (90%) and open reduction group good or excellent in 35 cases (83%). The difference of the results was not significant statistically, but arthroscopic assisted reduction technique has several advantages over open technique; the best assessment of articular surface, lower wound problem, postoperatively faster rate of rehabilitation and minor discomfort.

Purpose: To evaluate the radiographic results of the treatment for Danis-Weber type B lateral malleolar fracture with 2 cannulated screws. Materials and Methods: Thirty-four cases of Danis-Weber type B lateral malleolar fracture were available. Follow-up averaged 8 months (6-25 months). The medial clear space for lateral displacement of talus, talo-crural angle for lateral malleolar shortening, and malunion evidence of lateral malleolar fracture were observed. Results: Medial clear space was from 2mm to 4mm in 34 cases. Talo-crural angle was from $73^{\circ}$ to $82.5^{\circ}$ in 33 cases. One case was complicated with malunion of lateral malleolus. But, we found the same condition in the immediate post- operative radiographic film. Conclusion: We believe that the 2 cannulated screws fixation for Danis-Weber type B lateral malleolar simple fractures is an excellent treatment method.

We treated 10 cases of the medial malleolar fracture of the ankle by open reduction and internal fixation from June 1997 to December 1997. After the rigid internal fixation, we measured the gap of the fracture site and the step off of the articular surface by special instrument under the ankle arthroscopy whether it was reduced anatomically or not. And we tried to know the necessity of the arthroscopically assisted reduction and fixation in the medial malleolar fracture of the ankle. Under the arthroscopic view, all 10 cases were anatomically reduced as less than 1 mm of gap of the fracture site and less than 1mm of step off of the articular surface after open reduction and internal fixation in the medial malleolar fractures. In conclusion, through the arthroscopic management, it has advantage in finding and treating the accompanying intraarticular lesion, but also has disadvantage in setting the arthroscope and prolonging the operation time.
