The outcome after Lisfranc injuries correlates with anatomic and stable reduction. The best surgical treatment, particularly for the ligamentous Lisfranc injuries, remains controversial. Recent publications suggest that the ligamentous injuries may benefit from primary partial Lisfranc arthrodesis. Most surgeons agree that an appropriate reduction is better and easier achieved by open reduction and stable temporary screw or dorsal plate fixation or by open primary partial arthrodesis than by closed reduction or Kirschner wire fixation. Despite correct surgical technique and postoperative management, symptom-free recovery is uncommon. This article outlines current techniques in the management of Lisfranc injuries and resultant postoperative outcomes in a level I trauma center.
