We report a case of avulsion fracture of the calcaneus in an 83-year-old woman. Nonoperative treatment was not considered satisfactory. However, the os calcis was osteoporotic, and internal fixation therefore was performed with a transverse Kirschner pin through the os calcis, securing a figure-of-8 metal tension band wiring to the fragment. We suggest that this technique provides a strong internal fixation in selected cases.
我们报告一例83岁女性跟骨撕脱骨折的病例。非手术治疗效果不佳。然而,跟骨骨质疏松,因此采用一枚横向克氏针穿过跟骨进行内固定,并将8字形金属张力带钢丝固定于骨折块上。我们认为该技术在特定病例中可提供牢固的内固定。
