Endoscopic calcaneoplasty with adjunctive Topaz radiofrequency microtenotomy for Haglund’s deformity: A comparative study

Key Points

• Adjunctive radiofrequency microtenotomy significantly improves recovery time in Haglund’s deformity.
• The primary outcome—patient-reported pain levels—showed a reduction of 30% post-intervention at 6 months.
• A comparative analysis of endoscopic calcaneoplasty techniques evaluated the effectiveness of interventions including radiofrequency.
• Findings suggest that combining techniques may lead to enhanced surgical outcomes, indicating room for refined approaches.
