Abstract | ||||
Background: The goal of the ongoing research aimed mainly to assess clinical and radiological outcomes of the mini-open sinus tarsi surgical technique in reduction and fixation management of intra-articular displaced calcaneal bone fractures, which are frequently caused by high-energy trauma. Methods: 23 participants with intra-articular displaced calcaneal bone fractures were managed surgically using mini-open sinus tarsi technique. Plain X-ray films included lateral, anteroposterior, and axial heel views for all patients. CT scan was done to the studied participants preoperatively. The classification of fractures according to Sanders was II and III. Results: Acording to AOFAS score 6 cases were having excellent results, 15 cases were good, one case was fair and one case with poor result. Nine patients responded no pain, 12 patients complained mild pain, one patient presented with daily moderate degree of pain while only one patient complained from severe pain. Conclusion: the mini-open sinus tarsi surgical approach is valuable for reduction and fixation of intra-articular calcaneal bone fractures. It is highly efficient with in Sander’s II & III calcaneal fractures. | ||||
