Lisfranc's fracture-dislocation:​ a review of the literature and case reports

Kaplan, Jonathan D.; Karlin, Jeffrey M.; Scurran, Barry L.; Daly, Nicholas

Abstract

The authors present an in-depth discussion of Lisfranc's fracture-dislocations, including classifications, mechanisms of injury, radiographic evaluation, and a literature review. Four cases are presented for review. Lisfranc's fracture-dislocation is a rare injury that can lead to prolonged disability if undiagnosed or if there is a delay in treatment.
