Eklem İçi Ayrılmış Kalkaneus Kırıklarının Cerrahi Tedavisinin Orta Dönem Sonuçları

Abstract

Bu çalışmada ayrılmış eklem içi kalkaneus kırığı tanısı ile cerrahi tedavi uygulanan hastaların sonuçlarını geriye dönük olarak değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Kliniğimizde Mayıs 2006 ile Nisan 2008 tarihleri arasında cerrahi uygulanan 36 hastanın 40 kalkaneus kırığı çalışmaya dahil edildi. Kırıkların 32 tanesi yüksekten düşme, 3 tanesi araç dışı trafik kazası ve 1 tanesi de burkulma sonucu idi. 30’u erkek 6’sı kadın olan hastaların ortalama yaşı 42 idi (16-71). Hastaların ameliyat öncesi, sonrası ve kontrollerinde radyografi ile böhler ve gissane açıları değerlendirildi. AOFAS skorlaması ile hastaların ayak fonksiyonları ve ağrısı değerlendirildi. Tüm hastalara ortalama 7. günde lateral ekstansil yaklaşım ile açık redüksiyon ve özel kilitli kalkaneus plak ve vidaları ile internal fiksasyon uygulandı. Hastalar ortalama 15 ay takip edildi. Hiçbir kırıkta kaynama ile ilgili problem yaşanmadı. 4 hastada (%11) cilt keşişinin kenarlarında yüzeysel nekroz saptandı. Hiçbir hastada yüzeysel veya derin enfeksiyona rastlanmadı. 5 hastanın 7 kırığında refleks sempatik distrofi gelişti (%18). 40 ayağın 4’nde cerrahi öncesi böhler açısı normal iken, 6’sında gissane açıları normal olarak ölçüldü. 36 ayağın 30’unda (%83) böhler, 34 ayağın 27’sinde (%79) gissane açıları normal sınırlarda düzeltildi. Ortalama AOFAS skoru 81 olarak bulundu. Özellikle sanders tip 2 ve 3 kırıklarda uygun zamanlama, uygun teknik ve uygun rehabilitasyon ile cerrahi tedavi tatminkar sonuç vermektedir.

Mid-Term Results Of Surgical Treatment Of Intraarticular Displaced Calcaneal Fractures

Abstract

In this study, we wanted to evaluate the diagnosis and the results of surgical interventions of patients with intraarticular calcaneal fractures retrospectively. 40 calcaneal fractures of 36 patients who were operated between May 2006 and April 2008 were included in the study. 32 of the fractures were because of falling from a high place, 3 of them were because of out-of-car traffic accidents and 1 of them was the result of articular sprain. Mean age of patients of whom 30 were men and 6 women was 42 (16- 71). Patients were pre and post operatively controlled with radiographs at which böhler and gissane angles were evaluated. Foot functions of patients and pain was evaluated with AOFAS scoring. Open reduction with lateral extensil locked plate approach and internal fixation with screws was performed on all patients on 7th day. Mean follow up period was 15 months. Any problem with bone healing has not been experienced with any fractures. Superficial necrosis at the edges of incisions was detected at 4 patients (11%). Superficial or deep infection was not encountered in any patient. Reflex sympathetic dystrophy developed at 7 fractures of 5 patients (18). While böhler angle was normal at 4 of 40 feet before surgery, gissane angles were normal at 6 feet. At 30 of 36 feet (83%) böhler angle and 27 of 34 feet (79%) gissane angle was corrected to normal limits. Mean AOFAS score was found to be 81. Appropriate timing, proper technique and appropriate rehabilitation at especially sanders type 2 and 3 fractures, surgical treatment gives satisfactory results.
