Fracture of the Calcaneus in Young Children

REPORT OF THREE CASES

RICHARD E. MATTERI M.D.1 and JOHN W. FRYMOYER M.D.1

1 From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Vermont, Burlington

Fracture of the calcaneus was noted in three children, aged sixteen, twenty-seven, and thirty months, a total of 6 per cent of the calcaneal fractures seen at the Medical Center Hospital of Vermont in ten years. The importance of careful examination, observation of characteristic posturing, and the value of roentgenograms in several projections is stressed, since such fractures are easily overlooked.
