Abstract
- Lisfranc joint injuries are rare and account for 0.2% of all injuries. The pattern of Lisfranc injuries varies from low-energy ligamentous sprain to high-energy fractures or crushing injuries. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of Lisfranc injuries are important to prevent chronic foot pain and dysfunction.
