This review details various congenital and acquired calcaneal (heel bone) disorders. Understanding their specific radiographic features aids in accurate diagnosis of these common bone conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • The calcaneus, the largest tarsal bone, is susceptible to numerous congenital and acquired disorders.
  • Disorders can be primary, originating within the calcaneus, or secondary, affecting it from adjacent soft tissues.
  • These conditions impact bone integrity and patient mobility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To comprehensively review the spectrum of calcaneal disorders.
  • To illustrate the characteristic radiographic features of these conditions.
  • To enhance diagnostic accuracy in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on calcaneal pathologies.
  • Analysis of radiographic presentations of various calcaneal disorders.

  • Correlation of imaging findings with disease entities.

    • Main Results:

    • Primary calcaneal disorders include congenital, traumatic, infectious, hematologic, and neoplastic conditions.
    • Secondary disorders involve adjacent soft-tissue pathologies like arthritides and neoplasms extending to the calcaneus.
    • Many calcaneal disorders exhibit disease-specific radiographic patterns.

    Conclusions:

    • Radiographic assessment is crucial for diagnosing calcaneal disorders.
    • Recognizing specific imaging features facilitates differentiation between various pathologies.
    • This knowledge aids clinicians in effectively managing heel bone conditions.
