Intramedullary nailing of calcaneal fractures – experience with C-nail

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Introduction: The aims of the operative treatment of intraarticular fractures of os calcis are the anatomic reduction of articular surfaces and the restoration of the shape of calcaneus. The extensile surgical approaches are associated with high risk of serious wound healing problems. The authors present their experience with less invasive treatment of intraartricular calcaneal fractures using C-nail. Material and methods: Nineteen patients with twenty intraarticular calcaneal fractures type II and III according to Sanders classification were treated with C-nail in years 2014 and 2015. The follow-up period was at least 6 month. The operation time, wound healing, bone healing, stability of osteosynthesis (talocalcaneal height and Bo¨hler angle changes) and clinical results (AOFAS scoring system) were analyzed. Results: No wound healing problems were observed and all fractures healed successfully. We noticed only a minimal loss of talocalcaneal high and Bo¨hler angle during follow-up. Clinical score in all patients was between 81-100 points (good to excellent result). Conclusion: Intramedullary nailing of less severe intraarticular calcaneal fractures using C-nail seems to be a good alternative to plate osteosynthesis. Clinical and radiological results are very satisfactory with a low rate of complications.
