[The Haglund exostosis--a surgical indication and a minor intervention?].
From 1946 to 1985 a total of 594 patients with Haglund's disease were treated. 165 of the 266, who had been surgically treated were questioned extensively and 32 of them clinically and radiologically examined. Besides details of indication, surgical technique and perioperative issue, the subjective result as compared with the morphological state after removal of exostoses, was noted particularly. This necessitated the introduction of new X-ray quantification techniques in addition of the procedures described in literature. 73% good, and further 20% acceptable results confirm the indication. Nevertheless the success of the method depends largely on a good surgical technique and especially on the post-operative care.
