- Abstract
Category: Arthroscopy; Ankle Introduction/Purpose: During the last decade, arthroscopic procedures have been replacing open techniques in Haglund's disease treatment due to their considerable advantages. Endoscopic calcaneoplasty is a technique that allows resection of posterosuperior calcaneal exostosis and retrocalcaneal bursitis. The objective of this article is to describe this technique and report its clinical and subjective outcome. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was carried out in patients who underwent endoscopic surgery between July 2014 and March 2020. The patients were clinically and radiologically evaluated. All cases included were studied prior to the intervention and postoperative. All patients who did not show any clinical improvement after 6 months of conservative treatment were surgically treated with endoscopic treatment in the prone position through two posterior arthroscopic portals. Results: In this study, 14 endoscopic calcaneoplasties were performed in 14 patients, with an average follow-up of 40 months. The visual analog scale improved from a preoperative average value of 9.07 to 1.79 after surgery (p> 0.0001). The AOFAS scale rose from 38.71 before surgery to 94.57 postoperative (p> 0.0001). Good subjective results were observed in twelve patients (85.71%) and all of them would have surgery again. There were no wound complications or infections. No patient required reoperation. Conclusion: Endoscopic treatment is a useful technique, with good clinical and subjective results and few complications, being a good alternative to open techniques.
