The injury mechanism was a fall from a height of <1.5 m; the mean time from injury to treatment was 3 (range, 1\u20137) days. Conservative treatment comprised immobilisation in a plaster cast. Surgical treatment involved fixation with a half-thread cannulated screw for large fragments (in 6 feet) or a mini-plate for comminuted fragments (in 4 feet). At the final follow-up, the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle and hindfoot score was evaluated.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The conservative and surgery groups were comparable in terms of age, gender, and fracture displacement. The mean follow-up duration was 20 (range, 14\u201324) months. All patients had bone union; none had implant loosening or breakage. One patient with surgical treatment developed skin numbness at the medial aspect of the heel that resolved following neurotrophic drug treatment for 3 months. The surgery group achieved earlier full weight-bearing (5.8 vs. 7.5 weeks, p<0.001) and return to work (5.9 vs. 8.2 weeks, p=0.048), but comparable AOFAS score (89.0 vs. 88.2, p=0.4).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Surgery for displaced fracture of the medial process of the calcaneal tuberosity enabled earlier full weight-bearing and return to work but comparable AOFAS score.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1602400208","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,21]],"date-time":"2017-01-21T12:28:36Z","timestamp":1485001716000},"page":"163-166","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Conservative versus Surgical Treatment for Displaced Fracture of the Medial Process of the Calcaneal Tuberosity"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Bing","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gen-Bin","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yun-Feng","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1602400208","volume-title":"Anatomy of the foot an ankle.","author":"Sarrafian SK","year":"1993"},{"key":"bibr2-1602400208","volume-title":"Surgery of the foot and ankle.","author":"Coughlin MJ","year":"2006"},{"key":"bibr3-1602400208","volume-title":"Rockwood and Green's fracture in adult.","author":"Bucholz RW","year":"2006"},{"key":"bibr4-1602400208","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00776-005-0936-2"},{"key":"bibr5-1602400208","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.83B1.0830055"},{"key":"bibr6-1602400208","volume-title":"Skeletal trauma","author":"Browner BD","year":"2008"}],"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1602400208","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1602400208","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,2]],"date-time":"2026-05-02T07:23:48Z","timestamp":1777706628000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1602400208"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]},"references-count":6,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1602400208"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1602400208","relation":{},"ISSN":["1022-5536","2309-4990"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1022-5536","type":"print"},{"value":"2309-4990","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,8]]}}}
