Core Tip	This updated meta-analysis regarding the optimal treatment of displaced intra-articular calcaneal fracture suggests that operative and nonoperative treatment have similar clinical outcomes in residual pain, shoe fitting, walking distance and secondary subtalar arthrodesis. However, operative treatment has a higher complication risk than nonoperative treatment.
