Özet
Aim: The foot is one of the most neglected parts of our body. One of the causes of foot pain is the plantar calcaneal spur (PCS), which is the bone protrusion formed under the calcaneal bone, and the dorsal spur (DS), which is seen dorsal to the calcaneus. Our study aimed to examine PCS and DS morphologically. Materials and Methods: 235 patients with PCS were included in this retrospective study. Plantar calcaneal spur length (PCSL), plantar calcaneal spur thickness (PCST), Fowler-Philip angle (FPA), and plantar calcaneal fat tissue thickness (PCFT) with radiology in patients with the calcaneal spur, and also to classify plantar calcaneal spur (PCS) and dorsal spur (DS). Results: Bilateral PCS was found in 57.4% of the patients. DS was found in 43.5% of the patients with right PCS and 40.3% of the patients with left PCS. Large DS types were found at a higher level in males than females. Right PCFT was found to be significantly higher in patients with PCS compared to the control group (p=0.034). Conclusion: It was concluded that the majority of PCS patients had bilateral PCS, DS could be seen and there was a strong correlation between PCSL and PCST.
