Summary
Arthroscopic calcaneoplasty effectively treats Haglund
Area of Science:
- Orthopedic Surgery
- Foot and Ankle Surgery
- Sports Medicine
Background:
- Haglund's disease involves bony enlargement on the posterior calcaneus.
- Posterior calcaneal bursitis often coexists with Haglund's disease.
- Surgical intervention aims to alleviate pain and improve function.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic calcaneoplasty.
- To assess outcomes for patients with Haglund's disease and posterior calcaneal bursitis.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective analysis of 28 patients (30 procedures) from 2015-2019.
- Arthroscopic calcaneoplasty involving bone resection using specialized instruments.
- Postoperative assessment using American Orthopedic Society for Foot and Ankle Surgery (AOFAS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores.
Main Results:
- Significant improvement in AOFAS scores from 52.6 to 98.6 (p˂0.005).
- Average follow-up of 58.4 months.
- High patient satisfaction and low VAS pain scores.
Conclusions:
- Arthroscopic calcaneoplasty is a safe and effective treatment.
- Demonstrates excellent functional outcomes and patient satisfaction for Haglund's disease.
