“…On the basis of our results and on a review of the literature, we support the fact that the outcome is correlated with the accuracy of reduction and not with the surgical technique (open or closed method), while results of closed reduction and cast immobilization are disappointing [5,9,15,16,22,23]. Richter et al [17], comparing open and closed treatment of fractures and fracture dislocations of the midfoot, found no significant difference in the AOFAS score for age (<35 years and >35 years), gender, cause of the injury (motor vehicle accidents or other), and method of treatment (ORIF or CRPF).…”

“…The commonest type encountered in our center was type B2 (41%), followed by type C2 (23%), type B1 (15%), type A (12%), and the least common, type C1 (9%). This is in contrast to a series reported by Aitken and Poulson, [5] in which there was dorsolateral displacement of all five metatarsals, or the series reported by Wilppula, [9] in which dorsolateral displacement of four lateral metatarsals was the commonest injury.…”

“…Although high-energy injuries often produce abraded or crushed articular surfaces, which may develop arthritis despite appropriate reduction, most studies have found that the subsequent development of degenerative changes is markedly increased if the extent of the injury has initially been unrecognised, if the injury has been only partially treated, or if the anatomy was not restored. 23,[30][31][32][33] In an earlier retrospective study, Komenda et al 10 evaluated 32 patients who had had tarsometatarsal arthrodesis for intractable pain after trauma of the midfoot and found that in most the extent of the injury had not been appreciated and the reduction was inadequate.…”

“…If these methods fail to relieve symptoms to an acceptable level, arthrodesis of the painful tarsometatarsal joints is the treatment of choice. 10,[31][32][33][34][35] The decision as to the extent of the arthrodesis should be based on the location of pain and the radiological appearance of the joints. I have not in the past relied on other methods of imaging or selective injections to determine the joints to be fused.…”
