Abstract:
The case report of an intra-articular calcaneal fracture is presented. The case is noteworthy because the entire anterior process was fractured and dislocated into the subtalar joint. Treatment consisted of open reduction and internal fixation with good results. The literature was reviewed and an aggressive treatment posture adopted in order to prevent the long-term disability often associated with this type of injury.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
