TY - JOUR PY - 1975// TI - Fatigue fractures of the calcaneus in soldiers of the Federal Forces JO - MMW: Munchener Medizinische Wochenschrift A1 - Rückert, K. F. A1 - Brinkmann, E. R. SP - 681 EP - 684 VL - 117 IS - 16 N2 - Fatigue fractures of the calcaneus occur more frequently today than the typical march fractures of the metatarsal bones. The cause lies in the altered method of training with repeated jumping exercises and increased strain on the calcaneus. 203 fatigue fractures of the calcaneus were seen in 5 years, almost exclusively in recruits in the first 3 months of enlistment. 10 day after the beginning of pain in the calcaneus and swellings--in half of them bilateral-the X-ray showed typical zones of densification in the calcaneus. The treatment consists of decompression for 2 weeks until the complaint disappears.
