ABSTRACT
The present study investigated the relationship between type of calcaneal fractures and subluxation or dislocation of peroneal tendon. Also, we investigated clinical outcomes of patients with both calcaneal fractures and dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons in early surgical treatments (at the time of surgery for calcaneal fractures) and delayed surgical treatment (at the time of surgery for calcaneal plate removal) for dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons. We included 151 patients with calcaneal fractures who were followed for ≥2 years after surgery. Among them, 21 cases (13.9%) required reduction for peroneal tendon subluxation or dislocation. Reductions of peroneal tendons were performed at the time of surgery for calcaneal fractures in 11 cases, whereas the other 10 cases were performed during surgery for calcaneal implant removal. As classified by Essex-Lopresti, 94 cases (62.3%) were joint depression type and 17 (18.1%) were accompanied by dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons, whereas 57 (37.7%) were tongue type and 4 (7.0%) were accompanied by dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons. As classified by the Sanders system, 96 cases (63.6%) were Sanders A fracture lines, and 18 (18.8%) were accompanied by dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons. In 55 cases (36.4%) without Sanders A fracture lines, 3 (5.5%) were accompanied by dislocations or subluxations of peroneal tendons. In conclusion, calcaneal fractures with peroneal tendon dislocations are more common in joint depression type and Sander A type. Also, after a ≥2-year follow-up period, there were no significant differences in visual analog scale or foot and ankle outcome score whether reduction of peroneal tendons was done with reduction of fracture or removal of implant of calcaneus.
