Bohler's angle (annotated x-ray)

Case contributed by Frank Gaillard
Diagnosis not applicable
x-ray

Normal Bohler's angle. The normal value for this angle is between 20° to 40°. A value of less than 20° may be seen in some calcaneal fractures, however, a normal Böhler angle obviously does not exclude a calcaneal fracture.
