Treatment of calcaneal fractures: the available evidence

Abstract Calcaneal fracture is the most common of the tarsal fractures and represents 1%–2% of all fractures. The fractures may be divided into extra-articular (not affecting the joint) and intra-articular (involving the talo-calcaneal and calcaneal cuboid joints) types. The management of heel fractures includes nonoperative and operative treatments, but no clear consensus has been reached. The choice of operative treatment is still controversial with many factors influencing the final clinical outcome. Many studies have assessed the outcome of treatment of calcaneal fractures, but there is a general disagreement on their management. The objective of this study was to collect and evaluate the scientific evidence reported in the literature supporting the different treatments for calcaneal fractures.

Isolierte Fraktur des Sustentaculum tali: ein Fallbericht

Case reportA 32 years old male patient slipped while going downhill and injured his right foot. The next day X-rays were taken in which no bony injury was seen. Because of persistent complaints additional diagnostic by MRI and CT were performed. These showed a displaced fracture of the sustentaculum tali. The sustentaculum tali was fixed with screws. The fracture healed with a congruent articular surface and good functional outcome.ConclusionFractures of the sustentaculum tali are rare and are overseen frequently because of overlapping structures on X-rays. Even low energy trauma can cause these fractures in young patients. In patients with persistent complaints of the foot an additional cross-sectional diagnostic is strongly recommended.     

Relationship between lower limb dynamics and knee joint pain

To test the hypothesis that appropriate and timely neuromuscular control of limb motions plays an important role in the preservation of joint health, we kinematically and kinetically examined the behavior of the legs of young adult subjects at heel strike during natural walking. We compared a group of 18 volunteers, who, we presumed, were preosteoarthrotic because of mild, intermittent, activity-related knee joint pain, with 14 age-matched asymptomatic normal subjects. The two groups of subjects exhibited similar gait patterns with equivalent cadences, walking speeds, terminal stance phase knee flexion, maximum (peak) swing angular velocity, and overall shape of the vertical ground reaction. However, our instrumentation detected statistically significant differences between the two groups within a few milliseconds of heel strike. In the knee pain group, the heel hit the floor with a stronger impact in this brief interval. Just before heel strike, there was a faster downward velocity of the ankle with a larger angular velocity of the shank. The follow-through of the leg immediately after heel strike was more violent with larger peak axial and angular accelerations of the leg echoed by a more rapid rise of the ground reaction force. This sequence of events represents repetitive impulsive loading, which consistently provoked osteoarthrosis in animal experiments. We refer to this micro-incoordination of neuromuscular control not visible to the naked eye as "microklutziness."

Body mass index and maximum available midfoot motion are associated with midfoot angle at peak heel rise in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy

PurposeMidfoot movement dysfunction, as measured by heel rise performance, is associated with midfoot deformity in people with diabetes and peripheral neuropathy. Understanding contributors of midfoot movement dysfunction may help clinicians understand deformity progression. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with midfoot angle at peak heel rise.MethodsThe outcomes of fifty-eight participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy were analyzed. Midfoot (forefoot on hindfoot) sagittal kinematics during unilateral heel rise task were measured using 3-dimensional motion analysis. A multivariate linear regression model was used to predict midfoot sagittal movements at peak heel rise. Independent variables that were entered in the model were (in order of entry): age, body mass index, intrinsic foot muscle volume, and maximum available midfoot plantarflexion range of motion. Intrinsic foot muscle volume was obtained from magnetic resonance imaging and maximum available midfoot motion was measured during non-weightbearing plantarflexion using 3-dimensional motion analysis.ResultsBody mass index (R² = 30.5%, p < 0.001) and maximum available midfoot plantarflexion range of motion (R² = 10.9%, p = 0.001) were significant factors that accounted for 41.4% of variance of midfoot angle at peak heel rise, while age and intrinsic foot muscle volume were not significant predictors.ConclusionsGreater body mass index and less available midfoot plantarflexion range of motion were associated with greater midfoot movement dysfunction. These two significant predictors are potentially modifiable, suggesting possible improvements in midfoot movements with reduction in body weight and increasing midfoot plantarflexion range of motion. Health care professionals should consider patient’s weight and joint motion when prescribing foot exercise(s) to prevent excessive midfoot collapse during weightbearing tasks.
