Introduction: Calcaneal fractures usually occur by a fall from height when one lands on their feet. In this study we aimed to compare the functional outcome and radiological findings after treatment by steinmen pin (K-wire) and by plating method. Methodology: We designed a prospective study of all patients who were admitted and operated for calcaneum fractures in the Department of Orthopedics, Padmashree Dr. D. Y, Patil Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre, Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra from July 2015 till December 2017. Of the 30 cases, half received treatment with K-wire and the other half of the patients underwent plating. Baseline characteristics, pre- and post-operative Bohler’s and Gissane’s angles and complications were noted for all patients.
