  • Title: Lisfranc Injuries in the Athlete.
    Author: Lewis JS, Anderson RB.
    Journal: Foot Ankle Int; 2016 Dec; 37(12):1374-1380. PubMed ID: 27899721.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: Lisfranc injuries to the tarsometatarsal complex of the midfoot have become increasingly recognized in the athletic population. Regardless of mechanism, any injury that results in instability in the midfoot requires operative stabilization to preserve function and enable return to sport. In this manuscript, the anatomy, etiology, prevalence, current treatment modalities, and clinical outcomes of patients who suffer Lisfranc injuries are reviewed, with a special focus on the unique characteristics surrounding such an injury in an athlete. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, expert opinion.
