Minimally Invasive Medial Plating of Low-Energy Lisfranc Injuries: Preliminary Experience with Five Cases

Abstract: Fracture dislocations involving the Lisfranc joint are rare; they represent only 0.2% of all the fractures. There is no consensus about the surgical management of these lesions in the medical literature. However, both anatomical reduction and tarsometatarsal stabilization are essential for a good outcome. In this clinical study, five consecutive patients with a diagnosis of Lisfranc low-energy lesion were treated with a novel surgical technique characterized by minimal osteosynthesis performed through a minima… Show more

“…However, their follow-up was only 19 months, on average, and the study only included 5 patients. 7 Wagner et al reported on 22 patients with low-energy injuries treated with a percutaneous technique. While their study primarily aimed to evaluate the results of early weightbearing following percutaneous fixation, their patient-reported outcomes demonstrated very good to complete satisfaction with an average AOFAS score of 94 (range, 90-100).…”

“…Finally, we want to mention that all the coauthors of this letter usually perform minimally invasive procedures 2,4 -6 on a regular clinical basis. Nevertheless, we would like to emphasize that these procedures must continue growing through safe steps and valid information to ensure their persistence in the future.…”

“…However, concern has been raised regarding further articular cartilage damage during the introduction of screws. [ 24 ] Currently, bridging plate fixation is more often used in internal fixation for Lisfranc injury. [ 25 , 26 ] In our study, for patients with metatarsal shaft or base fracture, screw fixation may cause implant failure.…”
