Calcaneus fractures constitute 1.2 % of all fractures. Tuber calcanei avulsion fractures constitute 1.3-2.7 % of calcaneus fractures. Osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and diabetes mellitus have been reported to increase the risk of development of these fractures. It has been reported that tuber calcanei avulsion fractures in elderly females might develop due to osteoporosis. As far as we know, no tuber calcanei avulsion fracture developing on the basis of osteoporosis without presence of a trauma has been reported in young males in the literature. In the current case report, a 41-year-old male patient who was admitted with complaints of pain in the left heel and diagnosed with calcaneal avulsion fracture that developed on the basis of idiopathic osteoporosis and who was treated with conservative methods was presented.
跟骨骨折占所有骨折的1.2%。跟骨结节撕脱骨折占跟骨骨折的1.3%-2.7%。据报道，骨质疏松症、骨软化症和糖尿病会增加这些骨折发生的风险。据报道，老年女性的跟骨结节撕脱骨折可能是由骨质疏松症引起的。据我们所知，文献中尚未报道年轻男性在无创伤情况下因骨质疏松症发生跟骨结节撕脱骨折。在本病例报告中，介绍了一名41岁男性患者，该患者因左足跟疼痛入院，被诊断为特发性骨质疏松症基础上发生的跟骨撕脱骨折，并接受了保守治疗。
