They often occur as part of multiple fractures and are frequently associated with fractures of the spine and proximal lower extremities.Improper management of calcaneal fractures can lead to malunion, resulting in widening of the heel, decreased height, flatfoot deformity, as well as varus or valgus deformity of the foot. Therefore, restoring the normal biomechanical anatomy and function of the hindfoot is one of the primary goals in the treatment of calcaneal fractures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today we like to introduce ZATH <strong>Calcaneal<\/strong> <strong>Ankle Locking Plate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">ZATH <strong>a<\/strong><strong>nkle <\/strong><strong>f<\/strong><strong>racture <\/strong><strong>p<\/strong><strong>lates<\/strong> offer a variety of plate configurations in a low-profile design and can be utilized through a sinus tarsi approach for a minimally invasive treatment of calcaneal fractures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fragment-Specific OptionsThe <strong>Calcaneal Plating System<\/strong> offers a variety of plates to accommodate different fracture types. Whether comminution is present in the anterior process, through the posterior facet, in the posterior tuberosity, or any combination, multiple plates are available to treat these fracture patterns.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Low ProfileThe <strong>c<\/strong><strong>alcaneal <\/strong><strong>l<\/strong><strong>ocking <\/strong><strong>p<\/strong><strong>late<\/strong> are 1.8 mm thick are designed to minimize soft tissue irritation concerns.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Approach-Specific DesignZATH <strong>c<\/strong><strong>alcaneal <\/strong><strong>p<\/strong><strong>late <\/strong>are specifically designed to be inserted through a sinus tarsi incision.

The patient reported persistent severe sharp pain in the left heel, which was aggravated by active and passive movement of the affected area. She was unable to stand or walk, and thus sought medical attention at a local hospital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Auxiliary Examination CT scan:Comminuted fracture of the left calcaneus with obvious separation and displacement of the fracture fragments, and significant widening of the calcaneus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Primary DiagnosisThe patient was unable to stand or walk. Combined with CT findings and clinical manifestations, she was admitted with a diagnosis of left calcaneal fracture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Treatment Plan: Conservative treatment has a poor prognosis; surgical indications are definite.Surgery: Open reduction and internal fixation + bone grafting for comminuted fracture of the left calcaneus using the Beijing Zhong&rsquo;an minimally invasive calcaneal locking plate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Postoperative Feedback: The patient recovered well postoperatively, and the surgery achieved the expected outcome.The chief physician commented that the Beijing Zhong&rsquo;an minimally invasive calcaneal locking plate features excellent anatomical contour and high fitting accuracy. It is convenient for intraoperative manipulation, with a small incision and less bleeding, truly realizing minimally invasive surgical treatment for calcaneal fractures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Preoperative Imaging of the Patient<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/128.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4864\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/128.png\" alt=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Intraoperative Imaging<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/217.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4865\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/217.png\" alt=\"2\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Postoperative Imaging<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/316.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4866\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\/uploads\/316.png\" alt=\"3\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/bjzathortho.com_176937.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">ZATH<\/a><br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=some-knowledge-of-calcaneal-ankle-locking-plate\" rel=\"nofollow\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> China<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bjzathortho.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.bjzathortho.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=some-knowledge-of-calcaneal-ankle-locking-plate\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary Calcaneal fractures are the most common fractures of the tarsal bones, accounting for approximately 60% of tarsal fractures and 2% of all fractures in the human body.
