DefinitionWhere the metatarsals dislocate from their normal
articulation with the mid-tarsal bones1st 2ndMost commonly involves the
and the medial cuneiformand
metatarsals
Incidence is 1 in 55,000 peopleeachyear
Easily missed on initial x-rays

Classification Sprains are the most common injury to the
tarso- metatarsal ligament, it is graded I, II andIII (Burroughs et al 1998)
Grade I - Pain at the joint, minimal swelling andno instability of the joint
Grade II Increased pain and swelling of the
joint, with mild laxity but no instability Grade III Complete ligamentous disruption and
may represent a fracture-dislocation

Classification

11/40
Classification
Adam and Dixon 2008, say there are 2 basic typesof
Lisfranc injuries, homolateral and divergent:
Homolateral Where the metatarsals are shifted
laterally Divergent The first metatarsal shifts medially and
theremainder of the forefoot shifts laterally

Plain film plays a very important role in diagnosing
Lisfranc fracture-dislocations
To look for alignment
On the AP, the lateral border of the
1st
metatarsal is aligned with theLateral border of the medial

Conclusion Serious injury
Difficult to diagnose
Can lead to compartment syndrome Can have vascular compromise if not treatedquickly
A quick and accurate diagnosis can allow the
appropriate treatment to take place efficiently Can take a long time to recover
Complications that may lead to further surgery
Advance practice plays an important role
