Abstract

Lisfranc injuries may occur in the form of fracture-dislocations or pure ligamentous dislocations or subluxations. These innocuous appearing injuries have the potential for significant morbidity and long-term sequelae resulting in permanent deformities. Ligamentous subluxations account for 20% of these injuries and cases with partial incongruity are amenable to percutaneous fixation. In this article, we present step-by-step percutaneous fixation of these injuries as well as the post-operative management.
