Influence of bump height and bump–calcaneus ratio on clinical outcomes following calcaneoplasty for Haglund’s deformity: a prospective study

Endoscopic calcaneoplasty resulted in significant clinical improvement in patients with Haglund's deformity, with substantial increases in AOFAS scores and reductions in VAS pain scores. In this cohort, no significant association was observed between preoperative bump height, bump-calcaneus ratio, and postoperative clinical outcomes. However, the relatively small sample size limits the generalizability of these findings, and larger prospective studies are warranted.
