[Computed tomography in the evaluation of recent articular fractures of the calcaneus].
After mentioning the results of a survey carried out on 28 patients suffering from recent calcaneus articular fractures, the authors point out 9 main points to take into account when a TDM analysis of these lesions is to be done: they recommend to practice a double obliquity incidence that seems to be an efficient guide for a therapeutic decision. They insist on the usefulness of the TDM examination provided it is undertaken after the operation and the removal of the osteosynthesis equipment.
