Key Words Chinese manipulative bone-setting; Calcaneal fracture; Minimally invasive procedure; Percutaneous screw fixation; Case report
Core Tip This case report presents a sequential, stepwise manual reduction technique for comminuted calcaneal fractures, incorporating three standardized maneuvers, leverage, traction, and compression, prior to minimally invasive cannulated screw fixation. The Böhler angle was restored from 0° to 22°, with concurrent correction of calcaneal width. This minimally invasive technique uses small incisions, avoiding costly reduction devices or implants. At the 6-year follow-up, reduction was well maintained without loss of the Böhler angle. Thus, this approach with minimal equipment requirements provides a cost-effective surgical option, having significant potential for widespread adoption in resource-limited healthcare settings.
