To evaluate the clinical outcomes and radiographic results of operative treatment for intraarticular calcaneal fracture. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 57 cases of intraarticular calcaneal fracture managed with operative treatment, from January, 2000 to June, 2003. The type of intraarticular calcaneal fracture is classified by the Essex-Lopresti classification and Sanders by computed tomography. The 20 cases were managed by open reduction, 37 cases by closed reduction. RESULTS On clinical outcomes in the case of open reduction and internal fixation, above good in 13 cases, poor in 2 cases; closed reduction, above good in 16 cases, poor in 10 cases. Averages of Bohler angle were increased from 11degrees (preoperative state) to 21degrees (last follow up) in open reduction, and from 14degrees to 20.9degrees in closed reduction. CONCLUSION Open reduction was considered to be one of good treatment option if the anatomical reduction and stable fixation can be obtained.

To compare the result of failed internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures treated with arthroplasty and 95degrees angled blade plate. MATERIALS AND METHODS From June 2000 to may 2003, there were 12 cases with failed internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures among 185 cases treated with dynamic hip screw and followed up for more than 1 year. The 4 cases were treated with bipolar hemiarthroplasty, 1 case with total hip arthroplasty, and other 7 cases were treated with 95degrees angled blade plate with allograft, evaluated clinically the operation times, blood loss, walking ability and complication. RESULTS In the 7 cases, which treated with 95degrees angled blade plate, the average operation time was 109 minutes, the average blood loss was 431 ml. The result of keeping abreast of 1 year, no aid ambulation was 4 cases, the cane ambulation was 2 cases, the walker ambulation was 1 case, and there was no pain in 3 cases, mild pain in 4 cases, and no moderate pain. In the 5 cases, which treated with arthroplasty, the average operation time was 157 minutes, the average blood loss was 618 ml. During 1 year, no aid ambulation was 3 cases, the cane ambulation was 1 case, the walker ambulation was 1 case, and no pain in 2 cases, mild pain in 1 case, moderate pain in 1 case. CONCLUSION Both 95degrees angled blade plate and arthroplasty can be useful for failed internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures, and the choice of implant must be determined with caution, considering the surgical conditions of patient, as well as benefits of each devices
