Abstract
Calcaneal fractures are infrequent but, more often, serious. We report a series of 29 cases of calcaneal fractures surgically treated in the Orthopaedics and Traumatology in the University Hospital (CHU) Hassan II of Fez. This retrospective study aims to present the principles and to evaluate the results of surgical treatment for articular fractures of the calcaneus, in comparison with conservative treatment. Our study included 21 men and 8 women, the average age was 21-61 years. Etiology was dominated by road traffic accidents as wel as by falls from a high place. The evaluation of the lesions was based on the classification of Duparc. The treatment was based on open reduction associated with Y-plate osteosynthesis or one-third tubular plate osteosynthesis using triangulation. Clinical results were evaluated on the basis of kitaoka score, with an average follow-up period of 24 months. 86% of patients have had good medium-term results.Entities:
