Sumario:INTRODUCTION: Intraarticular Calcaneal fracture treatment nowadays is still up for debate. Surgical plating treatment is favorable because of the rapid healing process and better anatomical reduction despite the invasive intervention. Hence, clinical evaluation is needed to assess the quality-of-life index from foot and ankle by the American orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score postoperatively. Then, the outcome evaluation of reduction in calcaneal plating of intraarticular calcaneal fracture with Böhler angle and Gissane angle to see if the calcaneal plating technique is a recommended treatment for the calcaneal fracture. METHODS: We treated six patients from December 2020–July 2021 with a calcaneal fracture that underwent surgical plating, mainly by one surgeon. A calcaneal fracture is classified according to sanders classification. In this study, four patients are above the age of 40, and two are under 25. Pre-operative Böhler angle ranged from 8 to 65°, and Gissane angle ranged from 134 to 158°. OUTCOMES: Surgical plating was performed on all six patients. From clinical evaluation using the AOFAS score, we got satisfactory results on all patients who underwent calcaneal plating surgery. Three patients achieved excellent range outcomes with 95% and 99% of AOFAS Scores, and three patients reported AOFAS score good range outcomes with the lowest score of 88%. From the radiological outcome, most of the patient's Böhler and Gissane angles achieved normal value after surgical plating. CONCLUSION: The calcaneal plating technique gives better anatomical reduction depending on Bohler and Gissane angle. These results promise that anatomical reduction can improve clinical outcomes based on the AOFAS score. Thus, the plating method can be used effectively to treat an intraarticular calcaneal fracture.
