Brief Summary:
Calcaneal fractures, which affect the heel bone, are the most common type of tarsal fractures and often occur in young people, leading to long recovery times and significant social and economic consequences. Traditional treatments include either non-surgical methods, like immobilizing the foot in a cast, or open surgery, which involves a large incision to fix the bone with plates. However, open surgery has a high complication rate, including issues with wound healing. Recent advances have introduced minimally invasive surgical techniques, which use smaller incisions and have shown better results with fewer complications. This study aims to compare two treatment options for displaced calcaneal fractures: a minimally invasive surgery group and a non-surgical treatment group using a plaster boot. The goal is to determine whether minimally invasive surgery provides better outcomes for patients, such as faster recovery, fewer complications, and improved long-term function, to guide future treatment practices. Thus, this is a prospective, randomised comparative study of the management of articular fractures of the calcaneus: conservative treatment versus minimally invasive surgery.
