This study examines the characteristics, classification, treatment, complications, and functional outcomes of operatively treated displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures (DIACFs) in a level-I trauma center over a 20-year period. The results show that both percutaneous re-duction and screw fixation (PSF) and open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) can restore patients' function and yield relatively good long-term outcomes. However, there are differences in complication rates, with infection being the most common complication associated with ORIF and hardware removal being associated with PSF.
Introduction: This study was conducted to identify the patient characteristics, classification, treatment, complications, and functional outcomes of operatively treated displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures (DIACFs) in a level-I trauma center over a 20-year period.Methods: Patients with a DIACF classified as Sanders >= 2 and operatively treated with percutaneous re-duction and screw fixation (PSF) or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) between 1998 and 2017 were identified. Pre-and postoperative radiological assessments were performed. Functional outcomes were evaluated using the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and the Maryland Foot Score (MFS). General health and patient satisfaction were assessed using the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) and the visual analog scale (VAS).Results: In total, 120 patients with a DIACF that were operatively treated with PSF or ORIF. Of these patients, 72 with a total of 80 DIACFs completed the questionnaires (60%). The average follow-up was 130 months. Mean scores for PSF and ORIF were 74 and 75 for AOFAS, 78 and 78 for MFS, 68 and 61 for SF-36, and 7.7 and 7.5 for VAS, respectively. An infection was the most common complication associated with ORIF (31%), and hardware removal (58%) was the most common complication in patients treated with PSF. Overall, 36 patients (68%) were able to return to work after a median time 6 months (IQR, 3-7) and 6 months (IQR, 3,25-6,75) for PSF and ORIF treated, respectivelyConclusion: This long-term follow-up study reviews ORIF using ELA and PSF in the treatment of DIACFs. This study shows that both treatments are capable of restoring the Bohler angle and yield relatively good long-term functional outcomes. Differences in complication rates were apparent, infectious problems are inherent to ORIF using ELA, and hardware removal is associated with PSF.(c) 2022 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
