Brief Summary

Calcaneal spur is one of the most common causes of chronic heel lower face pain without a traumatic cause. Obesity, sedentary life and advanced age play a role in its etiology. Mechanical overload is the main factor in the development of the disease. Impaired biomechanical factors in the foot cause repetitive microtraumas, traction periostitis and degenerative changes in the plantar fascia. The calcaneal spur is a result of this pathological process that creates pain. Many static radiological evaluation methods are used to evaluate the effect of foot anatomy in etiology. The talocalcaneal angle is one of them. It is the angle between the long axis of the talus and the long axis of the calcaneus. This angle shows the alignment of the back of the foot. It decreases with varus angulation of the back of the foot and increases with valgus angulation. In this study, it was aimed to determine the place of the talocalcaneal angle values measured in the lateral radiographs of the foot in the etiology of painful calcaneal spur formation.

Conditions

Foot Callus; Plantar Fascitis

Keywords

heel pain; talocalcaneal angle; calcaneal spur

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• talocalcaneal measurement on patient groups and control radiographs with heel spurs in the first

  On the lateral foot radiograph, the angle between the line drawn from the calcaneal tubercule to the 5th finger and the line drawn from the talus body to the calcaneal tubercule is measured.
