Background: Calcaneal fractures were the most common hindfoot fractures, with most being intra-articular. Compared to fractures in other locations, calcaneal fractures had poorer prognoses. These fractures significantly reduced patients' quality of life, causing long-term chronic pain and functional impairment. Rapid recovery was crucial for restoring patients' normal life and work abilities. Advances in robotic technology provided a new surgical approach to promote faster rehabilitation for calcaneal fractures. Conclusion:Compared to the control group, TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive treatment for calcaneal fractures significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss and incision length, shortened hospitalization duration, better restored calcaneal anatomy, accelerated fracture healing, more effectively alleviated postoperative pain, and promoted early functional recovery.
