ObjectiveTo compare clinical results of Sanders II-IV fractures of calcaneus treated by self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft with locking reconstruction bone plate internal fixation.MethodsFrom March 2012 to December 2015, 48 patients with Sanders II-IV fractures of calcaneus were treated by open reduction and internal fixation through L-shape incision, bone grafting were performed on reserved bone defect of calcaneal fracture. The patients were divided into self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft group according to different materials. Twenty-eight patients in self-setting calcium phosphate cement group, including 23 males and 5 females aged from 22 to 52 years old with an average of (34.46±7.33) years old; 8 cases were type II, 11 cases were type III and 7 cases were type IV according to Sanders classification. Twenty patients in allograft group, including 17 males and 3 females aged from 24 to 55 years old with an average of(36.40±7.93) years old; 6 cases were type II, 7 cases were type III and 9 cases were type IV according to Sanders classification. Postoperative wound complications, Böhler angle before and after operation and 12 months, Maryland functional score were evaluated.ResultsAll patients obtained bone union, and were followed up from 12 to 42 months with an average of 25 months. There were no statistical significance in Böhler angle and Manyland score before and after operation and 12 months between two groups. Five patients occurred wound complications in allograft group and 2 cases occurred wound complications in self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft group.ConclusionsBoth of open reduction bone grafting and reconstructive plate internal fixation have good effective results for calcaneal fracture. Compared with allograft, self-setting calcium phosphate cement, which has no rejection response and less complications, has equal effects for calcaneal fracture and deserves to be popularized.Copyright© 2018 by the China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Press.
