ABSTRACT: Calcaneal fracture is one of the most common foot and ankle fractures, but the best treatment of this fracture is still under debate. No matter the treatment strategy of this intra-articular calcaneal fracture, early and late complications frequently occur. In order to treat these complications, combination of various ostectomy, osteotomy, and arthrodesis techniques have been proposed to re-establish the calcaneal height, restore the talocalcaneal relationship, and create a stable, plantigrade foot. In contrast to this approach of addressing all the deformities, another feasible approach is concentrating on those aspects that are the most clinically pressing.10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 Different arthroscopic and endoscopic approaches focused on the patient's symptoms and not the correction of t
