Sinus Tarsi Versus Extensile Lateral Approach for Calcaneus Fractures

Intra-articular Fractures Clinical Trial

Official title:
Sinus Tarsi Versus Extensile Lateral Approach for Open Reduction Internal Fixation of Intra-articular Calcaneus Fractures

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing the sinus tarsi approach to the extensile lateral approach for surgical fixation of calcaneus fractures.

It is hypothesized that open reduction and internal fixation of intra-articular calcaneus fractures using a sinus tarsi approach will provide equivalent fracture reduction and stable fixation with significantly decreased wound complication rates in comparison to an extensile lateral approach.
