Anthropometric values of calcaneus are important for the anatomy, diagnosis and treatment procedure of orthopedic surgeon, kinesiology, physical therapy and rehabilitation departments. We think that we will contribute to anthropometric index formation by doing this case study. In this study, a total of 150 calcaneus, 73 right and 77 left, were used without sex discrimination. Calcaneus length, calcaneus width and calcaneus height were measured and calcaneus indices and calcaneus types were determined. Calcaneus typing was done as previously described by Gupta et al. The maximum length of the right calcaneus was 75.62 ± 0.55 mm; the minimum width is 51.23 ± 0.81 mm and the body height is 26.74 ± 0.30 mm. The maximum length of the left calcaneus was 76.72 ± 0.52 mm; the minimum width was calculated as 49.91 ± 0.74 mm and the body height as 27.47 ± 0.27 mm. In our study, calcaneus length, calcaneus width and calcaneus height were measured and calcaneus indices and calcaneus types were retrospectively analyzed.
