Standardized postoperative treatment was administered to both groups. The surgical duration, number of fluoroscopic exposures, and postoperative calcaneal height and B\u00f6hler\u2019s angle at 3 days and 3 months were recorded.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    In the treatment group, the B\u00f6hler angle and the calcaneal height was measured at 3 days and 3months after the operation. There were no statistically significant differences in the calcaneal height or the B\u00f6hler angle between the two groups (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &gt; .05).

The treatment group had a shorter surgical duration and only two to three fluoroscopic exposures compared with the control group.
