Abstract
Identification of the correct source of symptoms is the key in formulating the correct treatment plan for heel pain after calcaneal malunion. Calcaneofibular and posterior ankle impingements can occur due to malunion of a joint depressed-type calcaneal fracture. The purpose of this Technical Note is to report the technical details of posterior and lateral decompression through the posteromedial and posterolateral portals using posterior ankle endoscopy.
