The study reviewed in this article evaluated a group of patients who underwent surgical therapy for calcaneal fractures at a Level I trauma center. One group of patients was treated after outpatient referral to the center, whereas the other group was admitted to, and underwent surgery at, the center. This study attempted to determine which patient risk factors or injury characteristics might lead to an increased rate of wound-healing complications. Bohler's angle is a classic radiographic method of determining the severity of calcaneal injury in this group of patients. The question posed by the authors of this study was: Does a drastic correction in Bohler's angle lead to an increased incidence of wound-healing complications? The authors do not recommend undercorrection of Bohler's angle but urge avoidance of overcorrection and stress the importance of early surgical fixation after lateral skin wrinkling is found.
