15 de sept. de 2017 · The aim of this work is to describe the radiologic evaluation, the classification systems, the morphological preoperative diagnostic imaging features of calcaneal fractures, highlighting the correlation with the choice of treatment and predictive capacity for the fracture surgical outcome.
In humans and many other primates, the calcaneus (/ k æ l ˈ k eɪ n i ə s /; from the Latin calcaneus or calcaneum, meaning heel; pl.: calcanei or calcanea) or heel bone is a bone of the tarsus of the foot which constitutes the heel. In some other animals, it is the point of the hock.
1 de sept. de 2005 · The calcaneus is the most commonly fractured tarsal bone and accounts for about 2% of all fractures. Advances in cross-sectional imaging, particularly in computed tomography (CT), have given this modality an important role in identifying and characterizing calcaneal fractures.
19 de ene. de 2011 · Abstract. The normal calcaneal anatomy is reviewed, and calcaneal fractures are discussed in terms of clinical presentation, basic fracture mechanisms, radiologic assessment, intra- and extraarticular types of fracture, treatment, and complications.
Radiographic abnormalities indicative of calcaneal infection are ill-defined areas of decreased bone opacity, indicating osteolysis and irregular bone contour (Fig. 22.47). In long-standing infections, surrounding diffuse sclerosis may occur.
Calcaneus fractures are the most common fractured tarsal bone and are associated with a high degree of morbidity and disability. Diagnosis is made radiographically with foot radiographs with CT scan often being required for surgical planning.
30 de oct. de 2023 · The calcaneus, also known as the heel bone, is found at the back of the foot near the ankle, just below the talus, tibia, and fibula bones of the lower leg. The calcaneus is the largest bone in the foot.
