Abstract:
Objective To analyze the results and complications of the treatment of intra articular calcaneal fractures with internal plate fixation. Methods From January 1998 to October 2004, 31 patients with calcaneal fracture (36 calcanea) were treated in our hospital. According to Sanders classification, there were 2 type Ⅱ,22 type Ⅲ,and 12 type Ⅳ. They were treated with reconstruction of the joint surface, internal fixation with screw and plate through the extensile lateral approach, and bone graft. The preoperative and postoperative data were statistically analyzed with SPSS 10.0. Results Follow ups lasted from 6 to 33 months with an average of 25 months. All the fractures healed 3 months after operation. On average, Bhlers angle was improved from preoperative 13.2?to postoperative 38.5?, Gissanes angle from 75?to 115.5?, and step distance from 5.0mm to 0.3mm. The differences between the preoperative and postoperative data were statistically significant(P
