Core Tip	Spontaneous calcaneal fractures may occur without any trauma in diabetic patients, sometimes accompanying diabetic foot ulcers. In the current study we report four cases who were hospitalized for diabetic foot ulcer with concomitant calcaneal fractures. Despite all treatment applied, amputation below knee had to be performed in 2 patients. It must be remembered that spontaneous calcaneal fracture may develop in patients with diabetic foot ulcer and this condition may lead to amputation earlier.
