Calcaneal fractures are complex heel injuries that require individualized treatment based on fracture type joint involvement and soft tissue condition. This article provides a structured overview of non-surgical management surgical fixation options and postoperative rehabilitation focusing on functional recovery long-term outcomes and complication risk.

Rupture of the extensor tendon after volar plate fixation remains a major problem in the repair of distal radius fractures. The most commonly affected tendon is the extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon, as it is confined within the EPL groove. The reported incidence of EPL tendon rupture after vola

Displaced comminuted fractures of the distal humerus in adults are a difficult problem due to the complex anatomy of the elbow joint, small fracture fragments, and limited amount of subchondral bone. The lateral and medial columns of the distal humerus form a stable triangular frame.

To reproducibly obtain stable fixation in the setting of osteoporotic or comminuted fractures, the parallel plate technique for the treatment of distal humeral fractures is based on the principle of enhancing the fixation of distal fractures. The key to the stability of this fixation structure is th

Periprosthetic fractures of the proximal femur are a serious problem in hip arthroplasty. The reported incidence is 3.5% 20 years after initial implantation and increases with the incidence of joint replacements. Intraoperative fractures are often associated with uncemented stems. More commonly, fra
