(A) Preoperative lateral foot radiograph of a comminuted, joint depression-type calcaneal fracture. Bohler’s angle measured 5.2 degrees through intersecting lines tangential to the superior tuber and the superior aspect of the posterior facet, and the superior aspect of the posterior facet and the anterior calcaneal process. In (B) a postoperative lateral foot radiograph is shown status post open reduction with internal fixation with a 3.5 mm lateral calcaneus plate with an additional two 2.7 mm lag screws underneath the posterior facet. There is restoration of Bohler’s angle measuring 25.2 degrees.
