Intra-articular calcaneal fracture classification and treatment options.docVIP

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 8 Intra-articular calcaneal fracture classification and treatment options Foot calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone in the tarsal bone fracture in 60%. The most common causes of injury are falls, with the recent development of transportation and construction industry trends have increased. As for the calcaneus After both inside and outside the common foot bow arm, fracture of its structure and shape of changes on the weight bearing and walking great impact. Therefore, the timely and effective treatment for patients with weight-bearing, a significant recovery of walking function. An intra-articular calcaneal fractures cause intra-articular calcaneal fractures are mainly caused by the vertical compressive stress, when the body after the fall from a height, like a wedge effect of the lateral talar calcaneal cross in the corner position, splitting the calcaneus. If the external force continue to function, the central triangle Jibei compression, articular calcaneal inclination for the bottom before. If the violence and large, there are other forces in different directions can be induced secondary to the fracture line has always been this low for the tongue fracture line fractures, when high compression fracture of the calcaneus. In addition there are, the valgus stress and avulsion stress. The stress led to collapse of the arch, heel broken body being squeezed on both sides of the cortical bone becomes widened diameter, articular surface collapse. Bohler angle decreases and disappears. calcaneal tubercle Move To Block relatively prolonged Achilles tendon, relaxation, there traumatic flat foot, heel valgus deformities. These changes result in abnormal foot stress distribution on from the joint and the whole body with the power lines have an impact loading, seriously affect the normal function of the foot and production of abnormal activity joints, causing pain. then cause traumatic arthritis. calcaneal fracture to the lateral pressure
