  • Title: Primary Arthrodesis for High-Energy Lisfranc Injuries.
    Author: Godoy-Santos AL, de Cesar Netto C.
    Journal: Foot Ankle Clin; 2020 Dec; 25(4):727-736. PubMed ID: 33543726.
    Abstract:
    The reported incidence of Lisfranc injuries is 9.2/100.000 person-years; two-thirds of the injuries are nondisplaced. Tarsometatarsal injuries range from minor sprains and isolated ligamentous injuries to grossly unstable and multiligamentous lesions. High-energy injuries are usually linked with mechanical energy dissipation through the soft tissues. Operative treatment options include open reduction and internal fixation, open reduction with hybrid internal and external fixation, closed reduction with percutaneous internal or external fixation, and primary arthrodesis. Treatment goals are to obtain a painless, plantigrade, and stable foot. Anatomic reduction is a key factor for improved outcomes and decreased rates of post-traumatic arthritis.
