Three-dimensional computed tomography analysis and functional results of calcaneal fractures treated by an intramedullary nail.

Background: Intramedullary calcaneal nailing is used to treat displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures. The main goal of the study was to assess the reduction of tomography and secondary goals were patient functional scores and complication rates.

Methods: The functional outcome and restoration of the radiographic parameters were evaluated post-operatively, at three months, at one year, and at the last follow-up.
