  • Title: Injuries to the midtarsal joint and lesser tarsal bones.
    Author: Miller CM, Winter WG, Bucknell AL, Jonassen EA.
    Journal: J Am Acad Orthop Surg; 1998; 6(4):249-58. PubMed ID: 9682087.
    Abstract:
    Injuries to the midtarsal joint and lesser tarsal bones occur relatively infrequently and often present with a benign appearance on imaging studies. These facts may lead to failure of diagnosis and/or inadequate and improper treatment, with subsequent disability for the patient. The clinician with a general knowledge of the various injury patterns to the midfoot is able to approach these injuries rationally and with an appreciation of their potential severity. This article reviews the mechanism, clinical and radiologic presentation, and treatment of midtarsal joint injuries and midfoot fractures.
