Management of a stage III Lisfranc ligament injury in a collegiate football player: a case review

Athl Train Sports Health Care. 2011;3(2):95-99

Abstract

The diagnosis and management of the Lisfranc joint injury is a complicated and sometimes frustrating endeavor. Some consensus exists on the diagnosis of Lisfranc injuries; however, the proper management of these subtle injuries is still debated and poorly reported. This case review highlights a unique management of a stage III Lisfranc injury, in that the athlete was able to successfully return to full participation after 3 weeks of rest and conservative, nonsurgical treatment.
