“…There may only be ligamentous injury, but if there is also direct bone injury, then it is easily diagnosed at the initial stage [7,8]. However, when the ligamentous complex is also damaged or a bone is injured alone, missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis can occur and lead to chronic pain and walking disorders after convalescence [9][10][11]. Open reduction and internal fixation are generally recommended for the treatment of Lisfranc joint injuries.…”

Lisfranc injuries are commonly asked about in FRCS Orthopaedic trauma vivas. The term "Lisfranc injury" strictly refers to an injury where one or more of the metatarsals are displaced from the tarsus. The term is more commonly used to describe an injury to the midfoot centred on the 2nd tarsometatarsal joint. The injury is named after Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin (1790-1847), a French surgeon and gynaecologist who first described the injury in 1815. 'Lisfranc injury' encompasses a broad spectrum of injuries, which can be purely ligamentous or involve the osseous and articular structures. They are often difficult to diagnose and treat, but if not detected and appropriately managed they can cause long-term disability. This review outlines the anatomy, epidemiology, classification, investigation and current evidence on management of this injury.

“…It shows hyperemia and increased activity in the delayed images at the Chopart or Lisfranc region, characteristic to diagnose the injury. The concomitantly acquired CT may be used to better visualize fracture patterns (Benirschke et al 2012 ). Eventually, MRI can be used to evaluate the midfoot soft tissues and to select patients who need to undergo stress examinations (Raikin et al 2009 ).…”

In sports medicine, foot disorders present a signifi cant clinical challenge due to the complex anatomy and function of the foot. Injuries are complex involving soft tissue as well as bony structures. Bone scintigraphy is a sensitive technique, which provides essential functional information which correlates better with clinical symptoms and treatment response than anatomical abnormalities. It is a useful tool to detect conditions affecting the bony structures of the foot in an early phase, but can also be helpful in the initial evaluation of soft tissue injuries. MRI though remains better in delineating most soft tissue injuries. The emergence of SPECT-CT has increased the accuracy of bone scintigraphy. This is particularly true for the recently developed hybrid systems, which are capable of
