CLINICAL SIGNS, X-RAYS AND CT SCANNER OF CANCANEAL FRACTURE PATIENTS UNDERWENT OSTEOSYNTHESIS IN THE CENTRAL MILITARY HOSPITAL 108
Main Article Content
Abstract
This project aims to assess the clinical signs and X-ray, CT Scanner in calcaneal fracture patients who underwent surgical treatment. A prospective descriptive study of 56 calcaneal fractures patients who underwent osteosynthesis between November 2016 and December 2022 at Central Military Hospital 108. The mean preoperative Böhler angle was -1,80 (-400 ÷ 220); Bӧhler’s angle <200, and Gissane angle >1300 in 50 out of 56 patients. Double density was present in 33 out of 56 patients. Fractures involvement of calcaneocuboid in 6 out of patients. According to Sander’s classification on CT film, fracture type IIA, IIB, and IIC were seen in 3 patients, 4 patients, and 10 patients, respectively. Type IIIAB, IIIAC, and IIIBC fractures were seen in 1 patient, 4 patients, and 6 patients, respectively. Type IV fractures have 8 patients. 32.14% of calcaneal fractures involve the calcaneocuboid joint. Conclusion: CT Scanner should be performed in patients with calcaneal fractures.
